Grade 1 Scripture Study Week 12 | Student Textbook
King James Version study. Days 56 to 60.
The KJV writes LORD for Yahuah, God for Elohim, Jesus for Yahusha, and Holy Ghost for Ruach HaQodesh (the Set-Apart Spirit). Scripture quotations remain exactly as printed in the KJV.
Listen to the KJV passage read aloud. Read the short explanation and study the different-verse worked example before starting your practice.
Day 56: Numbers 13:2
Read aloud: Numbers 13:2 (KJV).
Israel is near the land of Canaan. Yahuah tells Moses to send men to look at the land. A leader from each tribe will go. They have a real task: see the place and bring back what they learn. Notice who sends them and where they are going.
Worked example, Numbers 13:18 (KJV): “And see the land, what it is; and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many;”
Sample question: What does Moses tell the men to see about the land? Find the words: “strong or weak, few or many.” Worked answer: Moses told the men to see whether the people were strong or weak, few or many. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 57: Numbers 13:23
Read aloud: Numbers 13:23 (KJV).
The men search the land and find fruit. They cut a big bunch of grapes. Two people carry it on a pole, and they bring other fruits too. These are details the story gives us. Look at the words that name what they carried.
Worked example, Numbers 13:27 (KJV): “And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.”
Sample question: What two words do the men use to describe the land? Find the words: “milk and honey.” Worked answer: It flows with milk and honey. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 58: Numbers 13:30
Read aloud: Numbers 13:30 (KJV).
Different men speak about the land. Caleb tells the people that they can go up and take possession of it. Other men are afraid of the people living there. We can name Caleb’s words without pretending everyone agreed.
Worked example, Numbers 13:31 (KJV): “But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.”
Sample question: What do the other men say about going against the people there? Find the words: “not able.” Worked answer: They say they are not able to go up against them. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 59: Numbers 14:6
Read aloud: Numbers 14:6 (KJV).
The people have heard different reports. Joshua and Caleb speak to Israel about the land. They want the people to hear that Yahuah can lead them. The story shows a hard choice between fear and trust.
Worked example, Numbers 14:9 (KJV): “Only rebel not ye against the LORD, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defence is departed from them, and the LORD is with us: fear them not.”
Sample question: What do Joshua and Caleb tell the people not to do? Find the words: “rebel not.” Worked answer: Do not rebel against Yahuah or fear the people of the land. The printed words show how to find this answer.
Day 60: Numbers 14:19
Read aloud: Numbers 14:19 (KJV).
The people have complained. Moses speaks to Yahuah and asks for mercy. He does not ignore what happened. He asks Yahuah to pardon the people. This is a serious moment in Israel’s journey, and the words show Moses pleading for them.
Worked example, Numbers 14:20 (KJV): “And the LORD said, I have pardoned according to thy word:”
Sample question: What does Yahuah answer to Moses? Find the words: “I have pardoned.” Worked answer: He says, I have pardoned according to thy word. The printed words show how to find this answer.
