Numbers 11
Verse 4 mixt mixed CF. Exodus 12:38. (See Scofield "Exodus 12:38") . Unconverted church members, unable to desire or understand Christ as the Bread of God Exodus 16:35. See Scofield "Exodus 16:35" will clamour for things pleasing to the flesh in the work and way of the church: sumptuous buildings, ornate ritual, an easy doctrine. Alas! they lead away the unspiritual believers also. Verse 6 manna (See Scofield "Exodus 16:35") . Verse 25 spirit that was upon him There was no more power than before--only more machinery. Moses had murmured (Numbers 5:11) because of the burden that God had laid upon him. God, in distributing the burden, shows that Moses' power had, all along, been in proportion to his burden. Verse 31 two cubits high upon the face of all the earth The correct rendering is, "about two cubits above the face of the earth," that is, within reach of the people that they might slay them for food. The statement is not that the quails were piled up from the face of the earth two cubits deep. The level of their flight was two cubits above the earth. Verse 35 Kibroth-hattaavah i.e. graves of lust. Numbers 33:17
