As noted in previous episode introductions, we are in a section of Numbers that includes a lot of numbers and repetition, but take heart: after this episode, we\u2019ll begin the narrative section of Numbers that covers the 40 years of Israel wandering in the wilderness. With that being said, take note in today\u2019s episode that things begin well in Israel, and leaders from every tribe bring an equal offering for the dedication of the tabernacle\u2019s altar. Moses and the Levites follow the directions given by the Lord, and there seems to be general feeling of anticipation and obedience. It won\u2019t be long, however, until the Israelites lose heart and rebel against the Lord\u2019s commands.
