15. Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein
were fiery serpents, and scorpions--Large and venomous reptiles are
found in great numbers there still, particularly in autumn. Travellers
must use great caution in arranging their tents and beds at night; even
during the day the legs not only of men, but of the animals they ride,
are liable to be bitten.
who brought thee forth water out of the rock of
flint--(See on
De 9:21).
