Scripture Post #2,115: *TABERAH*

 

Numbers 11:

1 And when the people complained, it displeased the LORD: and the LORD heard it; and his anger was kindled; and the fire of the LORD burnt among them, and consumed them that were in the uttermost parts of the camp. 

2 And the people cried unto Moses; and when Moses prayed unto the LORD, the fire was quenched. 

3 And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the LORD burnt among them. 

Complaining got the Israelites consumed with flames. Complaining displeases and angers the LORD.
