And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
He called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah - מסה Massah signifies temptation or trial; and מריבה Meribah, contention or litigation. From 1Co 10:4, we learn that this rock was a type of Christ, and their drinking of it is represented as their being made partakers of the grace and mercy of God through Christ Jesus; and yet many who drank fell and perished in the wilderness in the very act of disobedience! Reader, be not high minded, but fear!
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
