Numbers 20:2 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

No water Which, as is generally thought, having followed them through all their former journeys, began to fail them here, because they were now come near countries where waters might be had by ordinary means, and therefore God would not use extraordinary, lest he should seem to prostitute the honour of miracles. This story, though like that Exodus 17., is different from it, as appears by divers circumstances.

Numbers 20:2

2 And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron.
