Numbers 20:19 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 20:19

17 Please ^alet us pass through your country. We will not pass through fields or vineyards, nor will we drink water from wells; we will go along the King’s Highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left until we have passed through your territory.’ ”

18 Then ^aEdom said to him, “You shall not pass through my land, lest I come out against you with the sword.”

19 So the children of Israel said to him, “We will go by the Highway, and if I or my livestock drink any of your water, ^athen I will pay for it; let me only pass through on foot, nothing more.”

20 Then he said, ^a“You shall not pass through.” So Edom came out against them with many men and with a strong hand.

21 Thus Edom ^arefused to give Israel passage through his territory; so Israel ^bturned away from him.

Death of Aaron

22 Now the children of Israel, the whole congregation, journeyed from ^aKadesh ^band came to Mount Hor.

23 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor by the border of the land of Edom, saying:

24 “Aaron shall¹ be ^agathered to his people, for he shall not enter the land which I have given to the children of Israel, because you rebelled against My word at the water of Meribah.
