This post contains several cross references of important topics discussed in the Book of Law.

Numbers is anything but forgettable; it's basically a flashing neon warning sign for the dangers of disbelief.

The solution to inheritance for families without sons isn't as simple as they thought. Numbers 36 relays the compromise made to ensure both the families and the tribes retain their land.

God arranges cities to accommodate the Levites, who have no inheritance. We also learn about cities of refuge and discover an interesting link between poverty/destitution and violence.

God outlines the boundaries of Israel and with the exception of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, those boundaries are intact today.

The Israelites visited and camped at numerous locations over the course of their journey. More than 40 places are listed in Numbers 33.

The inheritance of 2.5 tribes is given before the Israelites even cross the Jordan. Numbers 32 covers the stipulations regarding their inheritance.

In battle, someone always loses. Numbers 31 relays the devastation brought about by the Midianites' desire to disrupt Israel's rise to power.

Vows, like the one Samson's mother took, could be taken to gain favor from God.

Sacrifices were important but Israel wasn't free to just give sacrifices, they had to fit God's specifications.

These chapters cover the census before the Israelites enter the promised land, matters of inheritance, as well as the new leader of nation.

God didn't choose the Israelites because they were perfect, He chose them because Abraham (who also wasn't perfect) had faith. Similarly, we are chosen because of Jesus; as long as we maintain our faith and relationship with Him, we will find our way back to God.

We see these events from the point of view of Balak, king of Moab, and Balaam. Balaam is summoned to the king in the hopes of placing a curse on the Israelites.

In these verses, we learn about where they travel, their passage through nations, the brass serpent, and Aaron's death.

This chapter presents another episode of disbelief that plagues the Israelites, however this time, Moses and Aaron also succumb to this doubt.

A look at the death of Moses' sister Miriam. She was the one who watched him to safety when he was just a baby.

God specifies the purification rites for those who have become unclean.

Korah and a few others lead a rebellion against Moses and Aaron.

God reminds the people of His expectations, but He also gives the people a way to remember His commandments.

The Israelites scout out the terrain, but refuse to enter the promised land. Here we discuss how this relates to today and trusting in God.
