Numbers – Homeward Bound

Description

Jesus is the Messiah and the book of Numbers is all about him. But it is very much about us too. As the Israelites were pilgrims on the way to God’s promised land, so are we pilgrims on the way to God’s promised inheritance for us. As such, the book of Numbers has much to teach us.
