Numbers Overview

Bible Book OverviewsSteve Gregg
In this overview of the Book of Numbers, Steve Gregg highlights its biblical significance and relevance to Christian life. Though sometimes disliked for its numerical content, Numbers tells the story of the Israelites' wilderness wanderings and their rebellion against God. The New Testament repeatedly refers to Numbers, particularly in passages discussing Christ's finished work and the importance of spiritual rest in Him. Despite potential doubts surrounding the census numbers, the Book of Numbers remains an important reminder of God's patience and grace towards His people.
