Bilangan 14:11
Konteks14:11 The Lord said to Moses, “How long will this people despise 1 me, and how long will they not believe 2 in me, in spite of the signs that I have done among them?
Mazmur 95:8-11
Konteks95:8 He says, 3 “Do not be stubborn like they were at Meribah, 4
like they were that day at Massah 5 in the wilderness, 6
95:9 where your ancestors challenged my authority, 7
and tried my patience, even though they had seen my work.
95:10 For forty years I was continually disgusted 8 with that generation,
and I said, ‘These people desire to go astray; 9
they do not obey my commands.’ 10
95:11 So I made a vow in my anger,
‘They will never enter into the resting place I had set aside for them.’” 11
Ibrani 3:7-8
Konteks3:7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, 12
“Oh, that today you would listen as he speaks! 13
3:8 “Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of testing in the wilderness.
Ibrani 3:15-19
Konteks3:15 As it says, 14 “Oh, that today you would listen as he speaks! 15 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” 16 3:16 For which ones heard and rebelled? Was it not all who came out of Egypt under Moses’ leadership? 17 3:17 And against whom was God 18 provoked for forty years? Was it not those who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the wilderness? 19 3:18 And to whom did he swear they would never enter into his rest, except those who were disobedient? 3:19 So 20 we see that they could not enter because of unbelief.

[95:8] 5 sn The name Massah means “testing.” This was another name (along with Meribah) given to the place where Israel complained following the Red Sea Crossing (see Exod 17:1-7, as well as Deut 6:16; 9:22; 33:8).
