After the children of Israel came out of Egypt God led them to the 'promised land'.
Moses sent spies into the promised land to find out about the inhabitants. Ten of the twelve spies said the land could not be conquered and the Israelites were afraid and didn't want to go into the land.
Because of their fear and unbelief God said they would wander in the wilderness for forty years until another generation had grown up.
After forty years the new generation reached the borders of the promised land again and crossed into the promised land.
