Ramban on Numbers
WHY NOW DO YE TRANSGRESS THE COMMANDMENT OF THE ETERNAL? This does not refer to the [Divine] decree which He mentioned [previously] that your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness,171Above Verse 32. but it means: “Why do ye transgress the commandment of the Eternal: for He has commanded me that you should not go up at all, that ye be not smitten down before your enemies.”172Verse 42. And similarly Moses said in the Book of Deuteronomy, And ye deemed it a light thing to go up into the hill-country. And the Eternal said unto me: ‘Say unto them: Go not up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest ye be smitten before your enemies.’173Deuteronomy 1:41-42.

Sforno on Numbers
?למה זה עוברים את פי ה' והיא לא תצלח; by defying G’d in this manner you will not merely be guilty of a sin due to your trying to indulge your whims, but to the sin of deliberately trying to cause G’d to become angry. (the worst category of sin)
