And they saw that the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead was a good place for cattle. 2 So the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben came and said to Moses and Eleazar the religious leader and the leaders of the people, 3 "Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo and Beon, 4 the land which the Lord won in battle in front of the people of Israel, is a land for cattle and your servants have cattle." 5 And they said, "If we have found favor in your eyes, let this land be given to your servants as our own. Do not take us to the other side of the Jordan." 6 But Moses said to the sons of Gad and the sons of Reuben, "Should your brothers go to war while you sit here? 7 Why do you take from the people of Israel the desire to cross over into the land the Lord has given them? 8 This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land. 9 They went up to the valley of Eshcol and saw the land. Then they took the desire away from the people of Israel so that they did not go into the land the Lord had given them. 10 So the Lord's anger burned on that day, and He swore, saying

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the Lord's anger was kindled against Israel,.... For murmuring against the report of the spies:

and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years; for though it was but about thirty eight years from that time that they were in the wilderness, the round number of forty is given; and besides it includes the time of their first coming into it, which being reckoned, makes the complete number, within a few months: Kadesh, from whence the spies were sent, and whither they returned, and where the people murmured, and had this sentence pronounced on them, that they should not see the land of Canaan, but wander and fall in the wilderness, seems to have had the addition of Barnea made unto it on that account, which signifies the son of him that wandereth:

until all the generation which had done evil in the sight of the Lord was consumed; as they all were at this time when Moses spake these words.
