Hebrews 3:16 meaning and explanation

For who were the ones who heard and rebelled? Were they not all those Moses led out of Egypt?

Hebrews 3:16, Berean Standard Bible

The people who heard God's voice and still rebelled were not outsiders but the very people Moses led out of Egypt, the ones who saw the plagues, the sea and the manna.
