Numbers 11:10

Moses’ Complaint to the Lord

11:10 ¹Moses heard the people weeping² throughout their families, everyone at the door of his tent; and when the anger of the Lord was kindled greatly, Moses was also displeased.³

¹sn Moses begins to feel the burden of caring for this people, a stubborn and rebellious people. His complaint shows how contagious their complaining has been. It is one thing to cry out to God about the load of ministry, but it is quite another to do it in such a way as to reflect a lack of faith in God’s provision. God has to remind the leader Moses that he, the Lord, can do anything. This is a variation on the theme from Exodus – “who am I that I should lead….”

²tn The participle “weeping” is functioning here as the noun in the accusative case, an adverbial accusative of state. It is explicative of the object.

³tn Heb “it was evil in the eyes of Moses.”
