On the March: Lessons from Parashat Chukat

Join us this week as we journey with Israel through some of the most pivotal moments recorded in the wilderness—loss, leadership, rebellion, and divine revelation. In Parashat Chukat (Numbers 19–22), we explore the mysterious sin that barred Moshe from entering the Promised Land, the death of Miriam and Aaron, Israel’s refusal passage through Edom, and the miraculous healing through the bronze serpent. What do these stories mean for us today? Why did God choose an eastern route into the Land, and what message lies behind the roads, the rocks, and the rebellion?

From ancient roads like Derekh HaMelekh to prophetic signs like the serpent on a pole, we uncover layers of historical geography, spiritual insight, and Messianic hope—culminating in a deeper understanding of the One who was lifted up for our healing. Get on the bus, buckle up, and prepare for a rich encounter with the Word and the journey of faith.
