Overview

This index is meant to help the reader explore Biblical parallels, be they two accounts of the same event or law, stories with similar motifs and themes, or units of text which are linguistically similar and perhaps alluding one to the other. The page includes links to tools that aid in comparison, primary sources that touch upon the parallels, and summaries of and links to articles which analyze them in depth.

Complaints in the Wilderness Bemidbar 11 is one of a series of Israelite complaints in the desert which began already in Shemot 14 and continue throughout Sefer Bemidbar. In particular, there is a parallel between the demand for meat in Shemot 16 and in Bemidbar 11:4. Comparing the two narratives, however, highlights that there is a much harsher and more negative evaluation of the nation in Bemidbar than in Shemot.
