Numbers 20
20:1 Then
came the children of Israel, [even] the whole congregation, into the desert of
Zin in the first
a month: and the people
abode in Kadesh; and
b Miriam died
there, and was buried there.
(
a) This was forty years after their departure
from Egypt.
(
b) Moses and Aaron's sister.
20:2 And there was no water for the congregation:
and they
c gathered themselves together
against Moses and against Aaron.
(
c) Another rebellion was in Rephidim (
Exodus
17:1-16), and this was in Kadesh.
20:8
Take the
d rod, and gather thou the
assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock
before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth
to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their
beasts drink.
(
d) With which you did miracles in Egypt and
divided the sea.
20:10 And Moses and Aaron
gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear
now, ye rebels;
e must we fetch you
water out of this rock?
(
e) The punishment which followed declared that
Moses and Aaron did not believe the Lord's promise as it appeared in (
Numbers
20:12).
20:12 And the LORD spake unto
Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to
f
sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring
this congregation into the land which I have given them.
(
f) That the children of Israel should believe
and acknowledge my power and so honour me.
20:13 This [is] the water of Meribah; because the
children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he
h
was sanctified in them.
(
h) By showing himself almighty and maintaining
his glory.
20:14 And Moses sent messengers from Kadesh unto
the king of
i Edom, Thus saith thy
brother Israel, Thou knowest all the travail that hath befallen us:
(
i) Because Jacob or Israel was Esau's brother,
who was called Edom.
20:21
Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel
k
turned away from him.
(
k) To pass by another way.
20:24
Aaron shall be
l gathered unto his
people: for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the
children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.
(
l) Read (
Genesis
25:8).
