Moses the great Law-Giver wrote five golden books for the whole world to know what Jehovah God - the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - had done, from the (literal) Beginning (when the Earth was created), until the day His people entered their Promised Land. From these books - even those that seem to be all about rules and regulations, long lists of names and places - we have the foundation for civilization. Humanity is supposed to live by the Word of God, by the Laws of God, under the guidance and teaching of God Himself. Every chapter of the book of Numbers has relevance to the 21st century.
