THE MESSAGE
God spoke to Moses: "Take the staff. Assemble the community, you and your brother Aaron. Speak to that rock that's right in front of them and it will give water. You will bring water out of the rock for them; congregation and cattle will both drink."

New American Standard Bible (1995)
and the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

Contextual Overview

¹ In the first month the whole community of Israel came to the wilderness of Zin and camped at Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried. ² There was no water where they camped, so the people gathered around Moses and Aaron ³ and complained: "It would have been better if we had died in front of the Lord 's Tent along with the other Israelites. ⁴ Why have you brought us out into this wilderness? Just so that we can die here with our animals? ⁵ Why did you bring us out of Egypt into this miserable place where nothing will grow? There's no grain, no figs, no grapes, no pomegranates. There is not even any water to drink!" ⁶ Moses and Aaron moved away from the people and stood at the entrance of the Tent. They bowed down with their faces to the ground, and the dazzling light of the Lord 's presence appeared to them. ⁷ The Lord said to Moses, ⁸ "Take the stick that is in front of the Covenant Box, and then you and Aaron assemble the whole community. There in front of them all speak to that rock over there, and water will gush out of it. In this way you will bring water out of the rock for the people, for them and their animals to drink." ⁹ Moses went and got the stick, as the Lord had commanded. ¹⁰ He and Aaron assembled the whole community in front of the rock, and Moses said, "Listen, you rebels! Do we have to get water out of this rock for you?"
