We Be Not Able Numbers 13:31 The spies carried the fruit of Canaan, yet their hearts were weighed down with unbelief. Joseph Hall shows how distrust magnifies dangers and forgets God’s promises.

He considers God’s purpose fulfilled through human sin, the spiritual nature of Christ’s kingdom, and the solemn rejection of the faultless Saviour in favour of Barabbas.
Heal Her Now, O God Numbers 12:13 Miriam wounded Moses with her tongue; Moses sought to heal her with his prayers.
