Joshua's appeal to God in Joshua 7:7-9 ultimately rested on God's reputation before the nations. "For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it and will surround us and cut off our name from the earth. And what will you do for your great name?" This is a recurring theme among the patriarchs. Prayers for the sake of God's name carry more weight than prayers for our own.
Ecclesiastes 6;1 - 3, “ I have seen something else unfair here on earth. It causes serious problems for people. God gives some people great wealth, riches and honor. They have everything they want. But God does not let them enjoy such things. Someone else enjoys them instead. This is unfair and senseless. It is sad when a person can’t enjoy the good things God gives him. Such a person might have 100 children. He might live a long time. But what good is it if he can’t enjoy the good God gives him?”Solomon writes that we see this as unfair. Our Creator pours out His blessings on us and we reject those blessings. Maybe Solomon is right, this does seem unfair to our Creator. When we don’t take advantage of the blessings He gives us, is it His fault? No! We have the responsibility to recognize and accept the gifts our Creator offers us. When we reject those gifts and blessings the outcome is our fault. Living the way we are designed to live helps us to see and use those blessings to improve our lives and shelves of the people around us. What will you do with yours?
Your children shall be shepherds in the wilderness forty years and shall suffer for your faithlessness, until the last of your dead bodies lies in the wilderness.
Numbers 14:33
The innocent and guilty alike suffer the consequences of the actions and speech of others, but we are all especially vulnerable to the bad choices of those who have authority or power over us.
Rejecting God's commands is rejecting God. #faith in YHWH inevitably leads to obedience, while disobedience shows lack of faith.
Israel's assault on Amalek was the same as Nadab and Abihu's strange fire. Disobedience = Disobedience. The people are collectively guilty if they collectively sinned, regardless of individual innocence. It doesn't matter if we think God's judgments and instructions are fair or not. We might as well curse the sun for being too hot. It is what it is. Deal with it.
See Numbers 14-15.
