Why did the Hebrew people wander?

The wanderings (sojourneying) recorded in the Torah (see for example Genesis ch.12 and Numbers ch.33) were all either the result of direct prophecy (e.g. Exodus ch.13) or a free-will act in the service of God (Genesis 12:6-8). Occasionally they sojourned (not "wandered" aimlessly) as circumatances forced them, such as famine (Genesis 12:9).
