Moreover, you continued to provoke the Lord at Taberah, Massah, and Kibroth-Hattaavah.

You have been rebelling against him from the very first day I knew you!

So you must love the resident foreigner because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

There will be very few of you left, though at one time you were as numerous as the stars in the sky, because you will have disobeyed the Lord your God.

Remember – don’t ever forget – how you provoked the Lord your God in the desert; from the time you left the land of Egypt until you came to this place you were constantly rebelling against him.
