It is these last ones that Moses feels compelled to record for posterity on the banks of the Jordan, in chapter 33.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The miraculous splitting of the sea is given three words. The giving of the Torah, the manna, the quail, the great military victories- none. Nor do we hear about the complaints, the sins, the ensuing plagues. The highs and the lows are easy to remember; they don&#8217;t require mentioning now. We do hear of a whole list of places that have been unmentioned until now. The period between the second and 40th year in the desert, during which nothing of note happened, during which God&#8217;s voice was not heard in the camp, finally gets some attention. But why? Wouldn&#8217;t it be better to let those days sink easily into oblivion?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No, teaches Moses. &#8220;And Moses wrote the starting points of their journey (<\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">motza&#8217;eihem lemase\u2019ihem<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) by God&#8217;s word, and these are their journeys to their starting point (<\/span><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mase\u2019ihem lemotza&#8217;eihem<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).&#8221; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want your journey to bring you to a whole new point of departure, you need to understand exactly where it began. If you want to know where you are, you have to know where you&#8217;ve come from. Every step of the journey until now has brought you to this point. The good, the bad, certainly, but especially the boring and the mundane.
