¹⁷ And with whom was God angry for forty years? ·He was angry [^LWas it not…?] with those who sinned, ·who died [^Lwhose corpses/bodies fell] in the desert [Num. 14:29, 32]. ¹⁸ And to whom ·was God talking when he promised [^Ldid he swear] that they would never enter his rest [v. 11]? He was talking to those who did not ·obey [or believe] him. ¹⁹ So we see they were not allowed to enter [^Cthe Promised Land and God’s promised rest] because ·they did not believe [of unbelief/faithlessness].
