“Remember, and forget not, how thou provokedst the Lord thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou didst depart out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against the Lord.”
Remember and do not forget how you aroused the anger of the LORD your God in the wilderness; from the day you left Egypt until you arrived here, you have been rebellious against the LORD — the command to remember is now inverted: recall not divine grace alone but also Israel's own faithlessness. The entire wilderness journey was marked by provocation and rebellion.
