Numbers 20:25
23 And at Mount Hor, near the border of the land of Edom, the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
24 “Aaron will be gathered to his people; he will not enter the land that I have given the Israelites, because both of you rebelled against My command at the waters of Meribah.
Take Aaron and his son Eleazar and bring them up Mount Hor.
26 Remove Aaron’s priestly garments and put them on his son Eleazar. Aaron will be gathered to his people and will die there.”
27 So Moses did as the LORD had commanded, and they climbed Mount Hor in the sight of the whole congregation.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
