Miriam and Aaron, his own brother and sister, affronted him, <a class="bibleref" title="Num.12.1-Num.12.3" href="/passage/?search=Num.12.1-Num.12.3">Num. 12:1-3</a>. II. God called them to an account for it, <a class="bibleref" title="Num.12.4-Num.12.9" href="/passage/?search=Num.12.4-Num.12.9">Num. 12:4-9</a>. III. Miriam was smitten with a leprosy for it, <a class="bibleref" title="Num.12.10" href="/passage/?search=Num.12.10">Num. 12:10</a>. IV. Aaron submits, and Moses meekly intercedes for Miriam, <a class="bibleref" title="Num.12.11-Num.12.13" href="/passage/?search=Num.12.11-Num.12.13">Num. 12:11-13</a>. V. She is healed, but put to shame for seven days, <a class="bibleref" title="Num.12.14-Num.12.16" href="/passage/?search=Num.12.14-Num.12.16">Num. 12:14-16</a>. And this is recorded to show that the best persons and families have both their follies and their crosses.</p>
