Bemidbar 20 – Summary
End of an Era and its Leadership – Chapter 20 opens with Miriam's death and the nation's subsequent complaint over the water shortage at Mei Merivah. Moshe provides water by hitting the rock, but Hashem castigates Moshe and Aharon for their failure to sanctify Him in the eyes of Israel and decrees that they will not enter the Land of Israel. The chapter continues with the unsuccessful attempt at obtaining permission from the Edomites to pass through their land on the way to Israel, Aharon's death, and his son Elazar replacing him as the high priest.
