Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on Numbers 20:2-13.


Numbers 20:10

_ _ [Moses] said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? — The conduct of the great leader on this occasion was hasty and passionate (Psalms 106:33). He had been directed to speak to the rock [Numbers 20:8], but he smote it twice [Numbers 20:11] in his impetuosity, thus endangering the blossoms of the rod, and, instead of speaking to the rock, he spoke to the people in a fury.
