God commanded Moses to speak to a certain "rock in Horeb," which would cause a stream to flow from it, thus providing ample water for all of the people and animals (Numbers 20:8).
Rephidim |
It was named Rephidim, after the station mentioned in the Biblical account of the Exodus from Egypt.
According to the Book of Exodus in the Bible, Jehovah-Nissi (Hebrew: יְהוָה נִסִּי) is the name given by Moses to the altar which he built to celebrate the defeat of the Amalekites at Rephidim.
