Contextual Overview

1 And all the multitude of the people cried out, and wept throughout that nyght. 2 And all the chyldren of Israel murmured agaynst Moyses and Aaron, and the whole congregation sayde vnto them: Woulde God that we had dyed in the lande of Egypt, either that we had dyed in this wyldernesse. 3 Wherfore hath the Lorde brought vs vnto this lande to fall vpon the sworde, and that our wyues and our chyldren should be a pray? Were it not better that we returne vnto Egypt agayne? 4 And they sayd one to another: Let vs make a captayne, and returne vnto Egypt agayne.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And all the congregation lifted up their voice and cried,.... This is not to be understood of every individual in the congregation of Israel, but of the princes, heads, and elders of the people that were with Moses and Aaron when the report of the spies was made; though indeed the report might quickly spread throughout the body of the people, and occasion a general outcry, which was very loud and clamorous, and attended with all the signs of distress imaginable, in shrieks and tears and lamentations:

and the people wept that night: perhaps throughout the night; could get no sleep nor rest all the night, but spent it in weeping and crying, at the thought of their condition and circumstances, and the disappointments they had met with, as they conceived, of entering into and possessing the land.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

the promised land save Joshua and Caleb, 21-24.

of the Red Sea, 25.

The Lord repeats his purpose that none of that generation shall

enter into the promised land-that their carcasses shall fall in

the wilderness, and that their children alone, with Joshua and

Caleb, shall possess the land of the Canaanites, c., 26-32.

As many days as they have searched the land shall they wander

years in the desert, until they shall be utterly consumed, 33-35.

NOTES ON CHAP. XIV

Verse Numbers 14:1. Cried and - wept that night. — In almost every case this people gave deplorable evidence of the degraded state of their minds. With scarcely any mental firmness, and with almost no religion, they could bear no reverses, and were ever at their wit's end. They were headstrong, presumptuous, pusillanimous, indecisive, and fickle. And because they were such, therefore the power and wisdom of God appeared the more conspicuously in the whole of their history.
