Números 17:5

5 Y acontecerá que la vara del hombre que yo escoja, retoñará. Así disminuiré de sobre mí las quejas de los hijos de Israel que murmuran contra vosotros.

Números 17:5 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 17:5

And it shall come to pass, that the man's rod whom I shall
choose
Or make it manifest that he had chosen him, and so confirm the choice he had made of him and his family, for the priesthood to be and continue in:

shall blossom;
bud and blossom, and yield fruit, as it afterwards did, which is here declared beforehand, that the miracle might appear the greater, exactly answering to a prediction delivered out before of it:

and I will make to cease from me the murmurings of the children of
Israel, whereby they murmur against you;
against Moses for setting up his brother as an high priest, and establishing the priesthood in his family; and against Aaron for accepting of it, and officiating in it; but by this method now taken, God would for ever silence their murmurings, so that they should never be able, with any face, to object any more to the authority of the Aaronic priesthood, which should appear by the predicted miracle beyond all dispute and contradiction.

Números 17:5 In-Context

3 y escribirás el nombre de Aarón en la vara de Leví; porque hay una vara para cada jefe de sus casas paternas.
4 Y las pondrás en la tienda de reunión delante del testimonio donde me encuentro contigo.
5 Y acontecerá que la vara del hombre que yo escoja, retoñará. Así disminuiré de sobre mí las quejas de los hijos de Israel que murmuran contra vosotros.
6 Habló, pues, Moisés a los hijos de Israel, y todos los jefes de ellos le dieron varas, una por cada jefe según sus casas paternas; doce varas, con la vara de Aarón entre sus varas.
7 Y Moisés colocó las varas en la tienda del testimonio delante del SEÑOR.
