NUMBERS 12

MIRIAM + AARON OPPOSE MOSES

Miriam and Aaron, the sister and brother of Moses, begin to speak against him, criticizing his leadership and his wife, who is from a different region.

God calls all three into the tabernacle and rebukes Miriam and Aaron for questioning Moses’ unique relationship with Him. God strikes Miriam with leprosy, but Moses shows grace and pleads with God to heal her. God agrees, but Miriam is sent outside the camp for seven days.
