#### More Information About This Topic
Rebellion happened many times in the Old Testament. Moses wrote about Gods instructions for punishing a rebellious son who did not obey his parents (see: Deuteronomy 21:18-20). The people of Israel rebelled against God by trying to remove Moses as their leader (see: Numbers 17:10; Psalm 78:40). There were also times when a king rebelled against another king (see: 2 Kings 18:7).
The prophets warned the Israelites about rebelling against God (see: Isaiah 1:20). However, the Israelites often rebelled against God (see: Ezekiel 2:3). God allowed enemies to destroy the Israelites because the Israelites rebelled against God (see: Nehemiah 9:26-27).
Paul wrote that the law of Moses was given for rebellious people (see: 1 Timothy 1:9). Paul also wrote that false teachers were rebellious and should not be allowed to speak in churches (see: Titus 1:10-11).
