“Likewise when the Lord sent you from Kadesh–barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.”
And when the LORD sent you out from Kadesh Barnea, he said, 'Go up and take possession of the land I have given you.' But you rebelled against the command of the LORD your God. You did not trust him or obey him — the rebellion at Kadesh Barnea represents the climactic failure: Israel refused to enter the promised land due to fear of the inhabitants. Distrust of the LORD's promise led to direct disobedience.
