Numbers 12
Yes, two posts in one day. Two. I am still not caught up. But I am more caught up than before. :)
Oh, siblings. You gotta love them. Most of the time.
In this chapter, Moses' siblings begin talking behind his back about the woman he married. They even asked OUT LOUD if God only spoke to Moses. Weren't they there too?
I love the statement in ( ). Moses. He was humble. He was the least proud person on earth at this time. How cool is that???
Anyway, God calls out to Moses, Miriam, and Aaron. He tells them to meet at the Tent. NOW.
I am thinking it would be like when sitting in the office waiting to talk to the principal. Were they nervous at all? If not, they should have been!
God spoke. And He made His point clear. He would talk to others how He wanted to, whether in visions or in dreams. But Moses. Moses was different. He would speak to Moses face to face with him. End of story. Then He ended with this statement that should have had them shaking in their shoes. Or sandals. Or whatever they wore.
"You should be afraid to speak against my servant Moses."
When the cloud lifted, Miriam was white. REALLY white. Like skin disease white.
Aaron, alarmed, called out to Moses. Yes, the same Moses they had been ya ya-ing about. Moses asked God to fix it. And He did. After 7 days.
Still not sure why Aaron didn't get it.
But that is for God to know. And me to wonder about.
