The Jews are Jesus ' people and chosen by God. Jesus heard their cry from the bondage of suffering. He sent his servant Moses to deliver his people, but some murmured and complained against Jesus. They tempted and proved him, but Jesus showed them mercy. Then Jesus was grieved with some of them and they did not enter into his rest. Not only did they not make it to the promise land, they did not enter into his spiritual rest. They did not enter into heaven. This reminds me about Prov 1 and 2, daily Jesus reaches out to the world, but it will not answer him. He reaches out his arm daily, but they will not answer him. But he said, " When disaster comes to you, I will not answer you. I will turn my face from you, because when I called you would not answer me. When you cry out to me I will turn my face from you, and I will not hear you. " I hold on to the confidence and rejoicing I have in Hope of the Lord Jesus until he comes.
