We live in an era of woke insanity when normal ideas are rejected for new, ridiculous ones. Both Joseph and Moses had similar problems. There is an unexpected place for a solution.
Gender is a choice – and, indeed, a complicated one as there are many genders. If a 12-year-old girl believes that she is a boy or 'nonbinary' and wants to undergo life-altering surgery, she is vulnerable to harm – by adults suggesting that she not make irreparable changes, at least until she is old enough to get a tattoo. Climate change is 'the No. 1 existential threat to the world,' and a good reason for young people to live in debilitating fear and decide not to have children.
The incongruity of the crime and the punishment – he hits instead of speaks to a rock, and gets denied entry into the land after decades of faithful service and remarkable leadership – has intrigued Jewish Biblical commentators for millennia. But perhaps the reason for God’s punishment is right in the text. God tells Moses that he will not lead the people into the land 'because you did not…sanctify Me in the eyes of the children of Israel.
Have we been like Joseph, who spoke the truth in every environment? Have we, like God commanded us in Numbers 20, sanctified the truth by speaking it in public? Or have we cowered from truths – concerned of being socially ostracized, anxious about being called a name, fearful that doing so would cost us some kind societal benefit ? The answer to these questions, individually, will differ. But we know the general answer.
