Excerpt from Sacred Biography, or the History of the Patriarchs, Vol. 3 of 6: To Which Is Added, the History of Deborah, Ruth, and Hannah Sin, after their journies, according to the commandment of the Lord, and pitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink. Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said. Give us water, that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide you with me? Wherefore do ye tempt the Lord? And the Lord said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel: and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine hand, and go. Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb, and thou shall smite the rock, and there shall some water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the fight of the elders of Israel. Lecture XV. History of Moses. Exod. xvii. 8 - 13. - Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim. And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand. So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron and Hur went up to the top of the hill. And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed, and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses's hands were heavy, and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon: and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side, and his hands were steady until the going down of the fun. And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
