Transcription: Most ancient histories record the heroic exploits of mighty warriors and unblemished leaders. The Bible, however, gives a strikingly different picture as seen in the brutal realism of Numbers. On a dozen different occasions, the Israelites lashed out in despair or rose up in rebellion plotting against their leaders and denouncing God. The spirit of revolt spread to the priests, to the military, to Moses' family, ultimately to Moses himself.
