Commentary on Numbers 20:6

Theological / Devotional

From the presence. The attitude of the people seems to have become threatening. Moses and Aaron repaired to the sanctuary for counsel and protection.

Fell upon their faces. To ask that their sin of rebellious complaint be forgiven, and that their physical wants be supplied.

The glory of the Lord appeared. This was no doubt visible to the entire congregation, and should have been both a warning to them and a rebuke to their lack of trust in God (see chs. 14:10; 16:19,42).
