Exodus 16:7
German (Die Heilige Schrift (Schlachter 1951))
Was bedeutet das?
In Exodus 16:7, Moses tells the Israelites that they will see God's glory in the morning because they have been complaining about God. He emphasizes that Moses and Aaron are just humans, not the ones to be complained about.
Für Kinder erklärt
Imagine you're playing a game and you're upset because you're not having fun. You're telling your friend, who's just helping, that you're unhappy. But really, you should be talking to the game maker, not your friend. That's what Moses is saying here: the Israelites should be talking to God, not complaining to him about his helpers.
Historischer Hintergrund
This verse is part of the Book of Exodus, written by Moses around 1446 BC. The audience is the Israelites who have just been freed from Egypt and are wandering in the desert. They are facing hardships and are complaining about their circumstances.
Anwendung für heute
When facing difficulties at work, instead of complaining to colleagues, one might reflect on whether they are addressing the right source of concern. Perhaps a more constructive approach is to communicate directly with management or seek a solution through proper channels.
