Contextual Overview
1 The children of Yisra'el, even the whole congregation, came into the wilderness of Tzin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miryam died there, and was buried there. 2 There was no water for the congregation: and they assembled themselves together against Moshe and against Aharon. 3 The people strove with Moshe, and spoke, saying, Would that we had died when our brothers died before the LORD! 4 Why have you brought the assembly of the LORD into this wilderness, that we should die there, we and our animals? 5 Why have you made us to come up out of Mitzrayim, to bring us in to this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink. 6 Moshe and Aharon went from the presence of the assembly to the door of the tent of meeting, and fell on their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared to them. 7 The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying, 8 Take the rod, and assemble the congregation, you, and Aharon your brother, and speak you to the rock before their eyes, that it give forth its water; and you shall bring forth to them water out of the rock; so you shall give the congregation and their cattle drink. 9 Moshe took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him. 10 Moshe and Aharon gathered the assembly together before the rock, and he said to them, Hear now, you rebels; shall we bring you forth water out of this rock?
