Numbers 14:41 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 14:41

And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the
commandment of the Lord?
&c.] Which was to turn back into the wilderness, and go the way that leads to the Red sea, ( Numbers 14:25 ) ; instead of which now they were for going forward into the land of Canaan, though averse to it just before: but it shall not prosper;
their attempt to enter into it.
