NUMBERS 12

MIRIAM + ARRON OPPOSE MOSES

Miriam and Aaron, the sister and brother-in-law of Moses, start to speak slanderous words about Moses, criticizing his leadership. They also speak poorly of his wife, who is of a different ethnicity. 

God calls Moses, Aaron, and Miriam into the tabernacle to rebuke Miriam and Aaron. God gives Miriam leprosy, but Moses shows grace and forgiveness, asking God to heal her. God agrees to heal Miriam, but she is sent away for seven days.
