Numbers 5 · Grade 3

Confess and Restore

Name Date

Read the Story

Numbers 5 begins with the camp. God said people with skin disease or other uncleanness must go outside the camp. Why? Because God dwelt in the middle of the camp.

Then God spoke about wrongdoing. When a man or woman sins against another person, it is also unfaithful to Yahweh. The person must confess the sin. He must pay back what he owed and add a fifth more.

If the person he wronged had died and had no relative, the payment went to the priest. In the New Testament, Zacchaeus showed this kind of change (Luke 19:8). He promised to repay anyone he had cheated, four times over.

Memory Verse

You shall put both male and female outside of the camp so that they don’t defile their camp, in the midst of which I dwell.”
