In this episode of Torah Pearls, Ross, Jono, and Ezra delve into the layered narratives of the twelve spies sent to scout the land of Canaan. By comparing the accounts in Numbers and Deuteronomy, they explore how these versions differ and what those differences reveal about the composition of the Pentateuch. Are we looking at one unified story—or a stitched-together tradition from multiple sources? Some scholars even suggest that the spy narrative may be a later addition. Join us as we scout the text itself, tracing the seams, the shifts, and the scholarly theories behind this pivotal biblical episode.
