In 1 Corinthians 10, Paul looks back on the Israelite's' struggles with idolatry in the wilderness after the Exodus. He wants us to see their idolatry as an example, so that we don't fall into the same traps. While the context is completely different for us today, we are tempted by the same kinds of idols as them! How do we withstand temptation and idolatry? By looking to Jesus, our sinless Savior, and trusting him even when it doesn't make sense.
