Description

On today's episode we tackle all the digits of Numbers:

• Why is this section called “Numbers?” What else is itcalled?
• Will the Israelites EVER stop complaining and requesting to go back to Egypt?
• Who makes it to the other side of the Jordan?
• Why is Numbers a darling of the New Testament writers, coming up in different ways in multiple later texts?

Learn more as we help you make it past the accounting of all the tribes to find the gems of story and all the strange details – red heifers and talking donkey included!
