Allah said to Moses, “Walk on ahead of the people, take some of the elders of Israel with you, take along in your hand the Staff, with which you struck the Nile, and go to The Rock at Horeb"...
The area is also named Massah (meaning 'testing') and Meribah (meaning 'quarreling')/ & known as #Rephidim/ or Kadesh Barnea (Qadesh).
..."When you strike The Rock, water will come out of it, for the people to drink.”
So Moses did this, in the sight of the elders of Israel, and they all drank from the water, that miraculously gushed through the splitting of The Rock, as a Sign of Mercy from Allah.
Afterwards, the Amalekites attack the Israelites encamped at Rephidim, but are defeated. The Israelites are led in the battle by #Joshua, while Moses, #Aaron and Hur watch from a nearby hill. Moses notices that when his arms are raised the Israelites gained the upper hand, but when they are down the Amalekites prevail. He sits with his hands held up by Aaron and Hur until sunset, securing the Israelite victory.
