Lessons From Israel's Past

²⁰ “Behold, He struck the rock so that waters gushed out,
And streams were overflowing;
Can He give bread also?
Will He provide meat for His people?”
²¹ Therefore the Lord heard and was full of wrath;
And a fire was kindled against Jacob
And anger also mounted against Israel,
²² Because they did not believe in God
And did not trust in His salvation.
