Disobedience is Unbelief in Action
Commentators highlight that the terms for 'disobedience' and 'unbelief' are closely linked. The Israelites' disobedience (refusing to enter the land) was the direct result of their unbelief (not trusting God's promise to give it to them). For Christians, scholars note that the ultimate disobedience is refusing to believe the Gospel, showing that true faith is always active and obedient.
