Did Israel move as a mob or in an organized way when they broke camp?
Israel broke camp in an organized way, not as a mob. They moved out like an organized army, with all the tribes in their rightful order, an orderly procession rather than a hobnob of masses. This reflects that He is a God of order.
Les explains that when the children of Israel hoisted camp and got ready to move, the several million did not just go like a mob. They moved out like an organized army, all the tribes in their rightful order, not a hobnob of masses but an orderly procession. He emphasizes that He is a God of order, and the same principle applied in temple worship, where there were prescribed ways to do everything. Les also notes that when Paul teaches the resurrections in I Corinthians chapter 15, he says every man in his own order, so even the resurrections will be an orderly resurrection, not a great big jumbled up affair.
