God had miraculously delivered the Israelites from the bondage of Egypt (the 10 plagues, parting the Red Sea so they could cross over on dry ground, etc). Every time Moses turned around, they were complaining about something. God gave them manna, but they wanted more, and on and on. They were very ungrateful for what was provided. When they said they wanted meat, God sent them an abundance of quail to eat. While they were stuffing themselves, God punished many of them for their unbelief and trust of Him. As you read through the wanderings of the Jews in the wilderness, you will find that only 2 (Joshua and Caleb) out of all the adults enter the promised land. It was because of their unbelief that they wandered for 40 years while they died off. The same thing is true of heaven, only those who put their trust in the Lord and repent and truly believe will enter heaven. Hi Kimmy,
