[Thomas Blake responded to a comment about Moses striking a rock and
geting water.  He referred to "The Bible as History", saying that the
author claims that water from a stone is quite possible in that
region, and is a fairly well known phenonmenon.  --clh]

But this does not explain why Moses was rebuked by the Diety when he
struck a rock a second time to get water rather than speaking to it
as he was told to do.
