Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Numbers 13:1-33

Chapter 13Now in chapter thirteen we get the story. Now, they come to Kadesh Barnea and they are now on the border ready to enter into the Promised Land. They had been about two years, a little over two years now in the wilderness. And now they've come to the place of entering in and possessing the land that God had promised to them. In coming to the borders of the land, Moses thought it would be wise to send spies into the land in order that they might travel through the land, look at the... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Numbers 13:1-33

Numbers 13:11 . The tribe of Joseph. This verse seems deficient. Septri Manasseh; where the sense is, that the sceptre of Joseph was in the tribe of Manasseh. The Hebrew משׂה matta, signifies mace, rod, staff, &c., which the ancients were proud to preserve as the badge of princely descent and power. Numbers 13:16 . Joshua; literally, Jehoshua, or Jesus, as the LXX; that is, Saviour, who will save, or Saviour of the Lord. It is a compound of Jehovah; the Ιαω of the Greeks.... read more

Numbers 13:32-33They brought up an evil report.The report of the spiesI. God’s promises will always bear investigation. It is true that none of us has entered heaven; but Jesus, who has gone on in advance to take possession of it in His people’s name, has sent back an Eshcol cluster of its vintage, that we may know something of what we should expect. He has given us “the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.” The believer already has everlasting life; for the regeneration which he has here... read more

33. The giants Hebrew and R.V. Nephilim, like the antediluvian tyrants who corrupted the earth. Genesis 6:4, note. The application of the term Nephilim to a race of antediluvians does not prove that the giants found by the spies were the lineal descendants of these, nor does it justify the extraordinary hypothesis of the “higher criticism,” that the writer of Genesis 6:4, knew nothing of a flood in which all mankind except one family were destroyed. A resemblance in stature is all that... read more
