Answer Details
When the people of Israel received the minority report from the spies, they decided to go back to Egypt. In the Bible, in the book of Numbers, Moses sent twelve spies to explore the land of Canaan, which God had promised to give to the Israelites. When the spies returned, ten of them brought a negative report, saying that the land was filled with giants and that they could not conquer it. However, two of the spies, Joshua and Caleb, brought a positive report, saying that they should trust in God and take the land. Despite the minority report, the Israelites chose to believe the negative report and were afraid to enter the land. As a result, they expressed their desire to go back to Egypt, which led to them wandering in the wilderness for 40 years before entering the Promised Land.
