| In the biblical narrative, Moses led the Israelites through the desert for 40 years after their exodus from Egypt. This period of wandering was a divine consequence for the Israelites' lack of faith and their refusal to enter the Promised Land after being shown it by God's spies. The 40 years in the desert served as a time for the older generation, who had witnessed the oppression in Egypt, to die off, and for a new generation, unburdened by the memories of slavery, to be prepared for the conquest of Canaan. |
