by taking a census. God told him to fight an enemy and that he would win with God's help, but, lacking faith, Moses wanted a count of men (soldiers) so that he would feel more confident in the power of the men than in the power of God.
In the Bible, Moses angered God by striking a rock to bring forth water instead of speaking to it as God had instructed. This act showed a lack of faith and obedience, leading God to prevent Moses from entering the promised land.
He didn't. God gave the Israelites water (Exodus ch.15, ch.17, and Numbers ch.20).Moses transmitted the people's request for water to God. Each time, God told Moses to do a certain act (throwing a stick into bitter water; hitting a stone; speaking to a stone), and then God miraculously provided water.
Numbers 20:12. The people of Israel were complaining to Moses because they lacked water. God told Moses to gather the people together to watch and then command the rock over there to pour out its water. Instead, he raised his staff in anger and struck the rock twice. Water gushed out and the people were satisfied, but Moses and Aaron were reprimanded.

In Exodus 4:24-26 in the King James Version of the Bible, the significance lies in the story of God's anger towards Moses for not circumcising his son. Moses' wife, Zipporah, quickly circumcises their son to appease God's anger, highlighting the importance of obedience and following God's commandments. This event emphasizes the seriousness of God's laws and the need for faithful adherence to them.
Moses hitting the rock in the Bible is significant because it was a moment of disobedience that led to consequences for Moses. In the Book of Numbers, God instructed Moses to speak to the rock to bring forth water for the Israelites, but instead, Moses struck the rock in anger. This act of disobedience resulted in Moses being barred from entering the Promised Land. It serves as a lesson about the importance of following God's instructions and the consequences of disobedience.
God inscribed the Law on the first pair of tablets. When Moses came back down from the mountain, though, he discovered that the people had already broken the law and were sinning greatly. In anger Moses smashed the tablets. After this God commanded Moses to return to the mountain, create two more tablets of stone, and inscribe the Law on these replacements. Presumably Moses had memorized what was on the first tablets, or God told Moses what to write.
Ten commandments first ten commandment God made then when Moses came down from the mountain he saw the evil things his people were doing and threw the commandments in anger breaking them so he rewrote them because God told him to
