Miriam is the correct answer because she spoke against Moses and was punished by God with leprosy. This is mentioned in the book of Numbers in the Bible, where Miriam and Aaron speak against Moses' authority. As a consequence, Miriam is struck with leprosy and is confined outside the camp for seven days. Aaron is also involved in this incident, but he is not the one who is afflicted with leprosy.

The correct answer is that God instructed Moses to "number" the people by taking a census.

5. What determined whether the Israelites traveled or camped while they wandered in the desert?

Explanation

The movement of a cloud determined whether the Israelites traveled or camped while they wandered in the desert. This is because God's presence was manifested in a cloud, known as the pillar of cloud, which guided and directed the Israelites. When the cloud moved, it signaled for the Israelites to break camp and continue their journey. Conversely, when the cloud remained stationary, it indicated that they should set up camp and stay in that location. This system allowed the Israelites to rely on God's guidance and presence as they navigated through the desert.

Submit
6. Why did God consume part of the outskirts of the Iraelites camp with fire?

Explanation

The correct answer is "He was angry because they were complaining." In the Bible, it is mentioned that the Israelites complained about their hardships and the food they were given in the wilderness. This angered God, and as a punishment, he sent fire to consume part of their camp. This incident serves as a reminder of the consequences of complaining and the importance of gratitude and trust in God's provision.

The husband's grain offering was burned on the altar as a way to seek divine judgment.

However, there is no mention of the woman providing a "truth" sacrifice in this context.
