- (20:1-13) Moses brings water from a rock by striking it with his staff, but this contradicts God’s instructions to talk to the rock, so God tells Moses and Aaron that they will not lead the people into the Promised Land.
- (20:14-21) Edom refuses to allow Israel to pass through its territory, forcing them to detour.
- (20:22-29) The death of Aaron.

- (21:4-10) The people complain against God and Moses. God punishes them with poisonous snakes. After Moses intercedes, God has him set up a copper statue of a snake, which will cure anyone snake-bit who gazes upon it.
