Numbers 17:12 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

We perish — Words of consternation, arising from the remembrance of these severe and repeated judgments, from the threatening of death upon any succeeding murmurings, and from the sense of their own guilt and weakness, which made them fear lest they should relapse into the same miscarriages, and thereby bring the vengeance of God upon themselves.

Numbers 17:12

12 And the children of Israel spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish.
