Numbers 33:41 Summary
The Israelites left Mount Hor, where Aaron had died, and traveled to a new place called Zalmonah. This was a new stage in their journey to the Promised Land, and it showed that they were still following God's commands, even when things were difficult. Just like the Israelites, we can trust in God's guidance and provision, as seen in Psalm 32:8, and find comfort in His presence, as promised in Matthew 28:20. As we face our own journeys and challenges, we can remember that God is always with us, guiding and directing us, just as He did with the Israelites.

Gill's Exposition on Numbers 33:41
[See comments on Numbers 33:40].
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Numbers 33:41
And Aaron the priest went up into mount Hor at the commandment of the LORD, and died there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the first day of the fifth month.
Trapp's Commentary on Numbers 33:41
Numbers 33:41 And they departed from mount Hor, and pitched in Zalmonah.Ver. 41. Pitched in Zalmonah.] Of Zelem; signifying an image; so called because there the people, stung by fiery serpents, not by little dragons sprung out of their own bodies, as Fontunius Licetus will have it, looked up to the brazen serpent, by God’ s command, and were healed. De Spontan. Vivent. Ortu., lib. iii. cap. 51.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Numbers 33:41
STAT. XXXIV. Verse 41. ZALMONAH.] Probably in the neighborhood of the land of Edom. As צלם tselem signifies an image, this place probably had its name from the brazen serpent set up by Moses. See Clarke on Numbers 21:9, &c. From the same root the word telesm, corruptly called talisman, which signifies a consecrated image, is derived.
