This phrase indicates a private, pervasive dissatisfaction among the people, as they expressed their doubts and fears within the confines of their tents. This behavior echoes earlier instances of grumbling, such as in <a href="/exodus/16-2.htm">Exodus 16:2-3</a>, where the Israelites complained about food. The tents symbolize a place of supposed safety and privacy, yet they become spaces of rebellion against God. This grumbling is a direct violation of the trust and obedience expected by God, highlighting the Israelites' struggle with faith despite witnessing numerous miracles.<p><b>and said, “Because the LORD hates us,</b><br>This statement reveals a profound misunderstanding of God's character and intentions. The Israelites' perception of divine hatred contrasts sharply with the biblical portrayal of God's love and faithfulness. <a href="/deuteronomy/7-7.htm">Deuteronomy 7:7-8</a> emphasizes that God's choice of Israel was based on love and a covenant promise, not hatred. This accusation of divine hatred is a projection of their own fears and insecurities, rather than a reflection of God's true nature. It underscores the spiritual blindness and ingratitude of the people, who fail to recognize God's past deliverance and ongoing provision.<p><b>He has brought us out of the land of Egypt</b><br>This phrase recalls the miraculous deliverance from slavery, a foundational event in Israel's history. The exodus from Egypt is a central theme throughout the Old Testament, symbolizing God's power and faithfulness. It is a type of Christ's redemptive work, as Jesus delivers believers from the bondage of sin (<a href="/john/8-34.htm">John 8:34-36</a>). The Israelites' failure to trust in God's continued deliverance reflects a lack of spiritual insight and gratitude. Their focus on present fears overshadows the memory of past salvation, illustrating a common human tendency to doubt in times of trial.<p><b>to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites</b><br>The Amorites were one of the formidable Canaanite tribes inhabiting the Promised Land. The Israelites' fear of the Amorites highlights their lack of faith in God's promise to give them victory over these nations (<a href="/deuteronomy/7.htm">Deuteronomy 7:1-2</a>). Historically, the Amorites were known for their strength and fortified cities, which contributed to the Israelites' fear. However, God's promise to Abraham in <a href="/genesis/15-16.htm">Genesis 15:16</a> included the eventual judgment of the Amorites, indicating divine sovereignty over these nations. The Israelites' focus on the power of their enemies rather than the power of God reveals a misplaced trust.<p><b>to be annihilated.</b><br>This fear of annihilation reflects a deep-seated anxiety and lack of trust in God's protective power. Despite God's assurances of victory and His past acts of deliverance, the Israelites succumb to fear, imagining the worst possible outcome. This mindset contrasts with the biblical assurance of God's protection and provision for His people (<a href="/psalms/91.htm">Psalm 91:1-2</a>). The fear of annihilation also serves as a metaphor for spiritual defeat, where lack of faith leads to a failure to enter into God's promises. The Israelites' fear is ultimately unfounded, as God's plan for them is one of hope and a future (<a href="/jeremiah/29-11.htm">Jeremiah 29:11</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_israelites.htm">The Israelites</a></b><br>The chosen people of God, who were delivered from slavery in Egypt and are now on the brink of entering the Promised Land.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a></b><br>The covenant-keeping God of Israel, who led the Israelites out of Egypt with a mighty hand.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/e/egypt.htm">Egypt</a></b><br>The land of bondage from which the Israelites were delivered.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_amorites.htm">The Amorites</a></b><br>A group of people living in Canaan, perceived as a threat by the Israelites.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_wilderness.htm">The Wilderness</a></b><br>The place where the Israelites wandered due to their lack of faith and disobedience.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_danger_of_grumbling.htm">The Danger of Grumbling</a></b><br>Grumbling reflects a heart of unbelief and ingratitude.

This he does, not merely because of the solidarity of the nation, but also that he might suggest to them the possibility that the same evil spirit might still lurk among them, and consequently the need of being on their guard against allowing it to get scope. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/deuteronomy/1-27.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">You grumbled</span><br /><span class="heb">וַתֵּרָגְנ֤וּ</span> <span class="translit">(wat·tê·rā·ḡə·nū)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Verb -
