The Anger of the Lord Was Kindled, and Then Aaron, Your Brother Can Come Help You
There's another example of just like these patriarchs not being shown in the best light. After that when Moses and Aaron go to do the thing God tells them to do, they don't do exactly what God told them to do. That section was super helpful for me in understanding those first narratives where Aaron appears. I feel bad for like throwing shade on Moses. He doesn't come off looking great in this story. But it's in that context where then after he finally gives this last like, no, I refuse,. The anger of the Lord was kindled. Jewish interpreters, rabbis, say that doesn't ever happen unless there is a consequence afterwards.
