SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:29
En este desierto caerán vuestros cuerpos; todos vuestros contados según toda vuestra cuenta, de veinte años arriba, los cuales habéis murmurado contra mí;
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 29. Your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness , etc.] They had wished they had died in it, ( Numbers 14:2), and the Lord here declares they should, which is signified by the falling of their carcasses in it, or their bodies, which when dead fall to the ground, having no strength to support themselves: and all that were numbered of you : but a few months before this time, when their number was 603,550, ( Numbers 1:46); according to your number from twenty years old and upward ; which is observed, as Jarchi thinks, to except the Levites, for they were not numbered with the other tribes; and when they were numbered by themselves, their number was taken from a month old and upwards; wherefore it need not be wondered at, if we find that there were of them who did not fall in the wilderness, but entered into the land of Canaan, as it is certain Eleazar the priest, the son of Aaron, did, ( Numbers 34:17 Joshua 14:1); which have murmured against me ; which shows, that not the spies only, who caused the people to murmur, but the people themselves who murmured, and had been numbered, from twenty years old and upward, are the evil congregation the Lord thus threatened with death.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 20-35 - The Lord granted the prayer of Moses so far as not at once to destro the congregation. But disbelief of the promise forbids the benefit Those who despise the pleasant land shall be shut out of it. The promise of God should be fulfilled to their children. They wished to die in the wilderness; God made their sin their ruin, took them a their word, and their carcases fell in the wilderness. They were mad to groan under the burden of their own sin, which was too heavy for them to bear. Ye shall know my breach of promise, both the causes of it, that it is procured by your sin, for God never leaves any till the first leave him; and the consequences of it, that will produce you ruin. But your little ones, now under twenty years old, which ye, in your unbelief, said should be a prey, them will I bring in. God wil let them know that he can put a difference between the guilty and the innocent, and cut them off without touching their children. Thus God would not utterly take away his loving kindness.
