In Numbers 21:12, the Israelites are recounting their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, expressing gratitude for the provision of water in the wilderness. This verse highlights the miraculous nature of God's intervention, as He provided water for His people in a dry and desolate place. It serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness and care for His chosen ones, even in the midst of challenging circumstances. The Israelites' acknowledgment of God's provision reflects the importance of gratitude and praise in recognizing His blessings. Ultimately, Numbers 21:12 showcases God's power and compassion in meeting the needs of His people.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

They - pitched in the valley of Zared - נחל זרד nachal zared. This should be translated the brook Zared, as it is in Deu 2:13, Deu 2:14. This stream has its origin in the mountains eastward of Moab, and runs from east to west, and discharges itself into the Dead Sea.
