Contextual Overview
1And the sons of Israel, all the congregation, come [into] the wilderness of Zin in the first month, and the people abide in Kadesh; and Miriam dies there and is buried there. 2And there has been no water for the congregation, and they are assembled against Moses and against Aaron, 3and the people strive with Moses and speak, saying, "And oh that we had expired when our brothers expired before YHWH! 4And why have you brought in the assembly of YHWH to this wilderness to die there, we and our beasts? 5And why have you brought us up out of Egypt to bring us to this evil place? [It is] not a place of seed, and fig, and vine, and pomegranate; and there is no water to drink." 6And Moses and Aaron go in from the presence of the assembly to the opening of the Tent of Meeting and fall on their faces, and the glory of YHWH is seen by them. 7And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying, 8"Take the rod and assemble the congregation—you and your brother Aaron—and you have spoken to the rock before their eyes, and it has given its water, and you have brought out water to them from the rock, and have watered the congregation and their beasts." 9And Moses takes the rod from before YHWH as He has commanded him,10and Moses and Aaron assemble the assembly to the front of the rock, and he says to them, "Now hear, O rebels, do we bring out water to you from this rock?"
