AMPLIFIED 2015 | Exodus 17:7 He named the place [where this miracle occurred] Massah (test) and Meribah (contention) because of the quarreling of the sons of Israel, and because they tested the [patience of the] LORD, saying, "Is the LORD among us, or not?" |
Subject: what event was labeled the provocation? |
Bible Note: To mommapbs; I read this in the KJV, the verse reads as follows,"Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:" psalm 95:8. This passage is quoted again in Hebrews 3:8. |
