In the foregoing chapter we had the vexation which the people gave to Moses; in this we have his patience tried by his own relations.
I. Miriam and Aaron, his own brother and sister, affronted him (v. 1-3).
II. God called them to an account for it (v. 4-9).
III. Miriam was smitten with a leprosy for it (v. 10).
IV. Aaron submits, and Moses meekly intercedes for Miriam (v. 11-13).
V. She is healed, but put to shame for seven days (v. 14-16). And this is recorded to show that the best persons and families have both their follies and their crosses.
