Context of Numbers 20:22
20And he said, Thou shalt not pass through. And Edom came out against him with much people, and with a strong hand. 21Thus Edom refused to give Israel passage through his border: wherefore Israel turned away from him. And they journeyed from Kadesh: and the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, came unto mount Hor. 23And Jehovah spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying, 24Aaron shall be gathered unto his people; for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the waters of Meribah.
