God sent the plagues; Moses merely announced them. According to Jewish tradition, the ten plagues were over the span of one year (Mishna, Eiruvin ch.2), ending in the month of Nisan ( ~April), 1312 BCE.

Water came from it when struck?
Water came from the rock when Moses hit the rock with his rod.
What happened with moses and the rock?
The people wanted water and Moses got impatient. He struck the rock with his rod without God's command and he was punished for that.
Who struck the rock when it was supposed to be spoken to?
Moses (Numbers ch.20).
What god gave his people from a rock?
Manna? God ordered Moses to speak to the rock and it would gush forth with water. Instead, Moses struck the rock with his staff. God still provided water to the people, but Moses' punishment for disobeying what Jehovah had spoken was he would not be allowed into the promised land.
What did God give his people from a rock?
I assume you are asking about the old testament story where God told Moses to speak to a rock and water would spring from it. Instead Moses struck the rock with his staff and then water began to flow. So the answer to your question is water.
What was Moses' sin?
He did not believe God. The context was when Moses struck a rock when God had told him to speak to the rock (in order to bring forth water for the nation of Israel). Moses struck the rock because he was frustrated with the people constantly griping and complaining and he was getting tired of them. God consituted it a sin because Moses made the mistake of acting as if the people were offending him personally when it was God they were testing. Read Numbers 20:1-13
What are some mistakes of Moses in the Bible?
God told Moses to take a rod, the one with which he struck the river and go and strike the rock and water will come out of it and the people will drink. So Moses (Exodus 17:7) went and struck the rock as he was told and water flowed from it.Later, in Numbers 20:8-11, God told Moses to now go and "Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water." But Moses, who was still angry with the people, struck the rock, thus disobeying the word of the Lord. Water flowed from the rock, but because of His disobedience, Moses was not permitted to enter into the land of Canaan (the promised land).Answer:Another instance was when Moses forgot that his brother's being a mourner prevented him from eating the sacrifice (Leviticus ch.9-10).It should be pointed out that the claim to infallibility is a sure sign of forgery. We actually take pride in the fact that the Torah isn't like that: it unflinchingly publicizes the mistakes of its protagonists, since it wasn't a human invention.
Where does it say in the Bible the punishment Moses got for striking the rock twice?
We are aware that Moses struck the rock twice. One, Moses struck the rock out of anger and the other time he struck the rock to provide water. When did Moses actually speak to the rock is the question. God asked Moses to speak to rock.
Where was the place Moses struck the rock twice because his faith was weak?
This was at Meribah (also known as Kadesh-barnea) and is South-West of the Dead Sea in the top corner of the Sinai peninsula:-Numbers 20:7-13 13 Then the LORD spoke to Moses:8 "Take the staff and assemble the community, you and Aaron your brother, and then speak to the rock before their eyes. It will pour forth its water, and you will bring water out of the rock for them, and so you will give the community and their beasts water to drink."9 So Moses took the staff from before the LORD, just as he commanded him.10 Then Moses and Aaron gathered the community together in front of the rock, and he said to them, "Listen, you rebels, must we bring water out of this rock for you?"11 Thenraised his hand, and Mosesstruck the rock twice with his staff. And water came out abundantly. So the community drank, and their beasts drank too. 12 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust me enough to show me as holy before the Israelites, therefore you will not bring this community into the land I have given them."13 These are the waters of Meribah, because the Israelites contended with the LORD, and his holiness was maintained among them.
Why couldn't Moses get into Canaan?
Because God didn't let him (Numbers ch.20), since he struck the rock instead of speaking to it (ibid), thus diminishing the miracle.
Where in the bible is god mad at moses?
In Exodus 4:14, God expresses his anger toward Moses for his reluctance to follow the instructions given to him. This passage highlights God's frustration with Moses's lack of faith and commitment to carry out the tasks assigned to him.
Why Moses hit the rock?
Moses struck the rock twice because he was impatient, and he got punished and was not allowed to enter the promised land of Canaan. Aaron stood by him as co-leader and was therefore held partially responsible.Moses' sin is mentioned (Numbers 20:12 and 24) again and again (Numbers ch.27, Deuteronomy ch.32). He struck the rock which was, by a miracle of God, made into a source of water (Numbers ch.20). He was supposed to speak to the rock instead (ibid). Striking the rock served to slightly diminish the miracle.It should be self-understood that this criticism of Moses is only in proportion to his greatness. In the final analysis, he remained the most godly person who ever lived (Deuteronomy ch.34).
