Why didn't God let the Jews pass through the land of the Plishtim (Philistines) after they left Mitzrayim (Egypt)? |
He didn't want them to enter the land of the Plishtim before Yehoshua (Joshua) was ready to lead them in
He knew that the Plishtim would conquer them
It was a punishment
He didn't want them to want to return to nearby Mitzrayim if they would become afraid during a war
