Then Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly
Moses and Aaron, as leaders of the Israelites, often faced the complaints and grievances of the people. This phrase indicates a moment of crisis, as the assembly was likely in a state of unrest due to the lack of water. The act of leaving the assembly shows their reliance on God rather than human solutions. This is a recurring theme in the wilderness journey, where the leaders seek divine guidance in times of trouble.

to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting
The Tent of Meeting, also known as the Tabernacle, was the designated place where God communicated with Moses and Aaron. It was a sacred space, symbolizing God's presence among His people. The entrance to the Tent of Meeting was a place of divine encounter, where significant revelations and instructions were given. This setting underscores the seriousness of the situation and the need for divine intervention.

They fell facedown
Falling facedown is an act of worship, submission, and humility before God. It signifies recognition of God's sovereignty and the leaders' dependence on Him. This posture is seen throughout Scripture as a response to God's presence or in times of urgent supplication (e.g.,Genesis 17:3,Joshua 5:14). It reflects the gravity of the situation and the leaders' earnest plea for guidance.

and the glory of the LORD appeared to them
The glory of the LORD, often associated with a visible manifestation of God's presence, is a recurring theme in the Old Testament. It signifies God's approval, presence, and power. In this context, it indicates that God is attentive to the plight of His people and ready to provide a solution. The appearance of God's glory reassures Moses and Aaron of His continued guidance and support. This moment foreshadows the ultimate revelation of God's glory in Jesus Christ, who is described as the radiance of God's glory in the New Testament (Hebrews 1:3).

Moses and Aaron's immediate response to the crisis was to seek God's presence. In our own lives, we should prioritize turning to God in prayer and seeking His guidance when faced with challenges.

The appearance of the glory of the LORD reassures us of God's faithfulness to be present with His people. We can trust that God will reveal Himself to us when we earnestly seek Him.

What Does Numbers 20:6 Mean
Then Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly

- Facing open complaint (Numbers 20:2-5), Moses and Aaron withdraw rather than argue, modeling humility similar to Moses’ earlier reaction to rebellion (Numbers 14:5).

- Stepping away avoids fleshly impulse and seeks divine wisdom, reflectingProverbs 3:5-6.

- Leaders today likewise retreat to God’s presence instead of reacting in anger (James 1:19-20).

to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting

- The Tent of Meeting is the appointed spot where God speaks (Exodus 33:7-11). Approaching it highlights confidence that the LORD hears and answers (Hebrews 4:16).

- By going to the doorway, they stay accessible to the people yet stand before God—intercession in action (1 Samuel 12:23).

They fell facedown

- Prostration shows reverence, repentance, and dependence, paralleling Abraham inGenesis 17:3 and Joshua inJoshua 5:14.

- In crises, bowing low before God precedes rising to lead His people (Psalm 95:6;Luke 22:41-43).

- Their posture confesses, “Not our will, but Yours,” countering prior unbelief at Meribah (Numbers 20:12).

and the glory of the LORD appeared to them

- God’s visible glory underscores His readiness to guide (Exodus 16:10; 40:34-35).

- Divine presence validates Moses and Aaron’s leadership, refuting the crowd’s distrust (Numbers 16:19).

- This appearance anticipates Christ, “the radiance of God’s glory” (Hebrews 1:3), reminding us that true guidance comes when we humble ourselves under His majesty (1 Peter 5:6).

summary

Numbers 20:6 shows faithful leaders withdrawing from conflict to seek God at the ordained place, humbling themselves in worship, and receiving the confirming presence of His glory. The verse calls believers to handle challenges by stepping into God’s presence, bowing low in dependence, and trusting Him to reveal the next step.

Verse 6. -They fellupon their faces. See note on chapter Numbers 14:5.
