Graves of Craving

Numbers 11.31-35
Suddenly the Lord sent a wind that brought quails from the sea, flying three feet
above the ground. They settled on the camp and all around it for miles and miles
in every direction. So all that day, all night, and all the next day, the people
worked catching quails; no one gathered less than fifty bushels. They spread them out to dry all around the camp. While there was still plenty of meat for them to eat, the Lord became angry with the people and caused an epidemic to break out among them. That place was named Kibroth Hattaavah (which means “Graves of Craving”), because there they buried the people who had craved meat. From there the people moved to Hazeroth, where they made camp.

On this day...
