Question 6

What did Moses call the name of the place that he smote the rock and water came out?

Answer 6

Exodus 17:6-7

“Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, and the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel. And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah”

Question 7

Camped in the hot, waterless wilderness of southern Palestine, the Israelites challenged Moses, saying, “Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst? (Exodus 17:3). This complaint may have been understandable except what had recently happened?

Answer 7

This incident occurred after the miraculous Passover, after the passage through the Red Sea dry shod, and after the outpouring of manna and quail from heaven.

Question 8

What was the law of Moses?

Answer 8

The law of Moses was the lesser law given to the Israelite people because of their rejection of the fullness of the gospel. The law was spiritual and designed to help point the people to the future coming of Jesus Christ as their Savior. The law of Moses has strict laws and commands to teach the he people but still had many aspects of the gospel. Unfortunately, additional strict laws were added by Rabbi’s to the point that it became extremely rude some and spirituality was lost.
