“And the people wept that night.” (14:1)

Klal Yisrael believed the spies’ malignant report of what they saw in Eretz Yisrael. They responded to the report in a manner unbecoming a noble people, a nation that had stood at Har Sinai and was privy to an unprecedented Revelation of the Almighty. What was their response? They cried – and cried. They withdrew to their tents and lamented the terrible “fate” that was awaiting them. They lived through a night of ceaseless weeping, a night of unwarranted weeping. Hashem also responded. The Talmud in Taanis 28a states that Hashem said to Klal Yisrael, “You wept without reason; I will…

“Not so is My servant Moshe; in My entire house he is trusted.” (12:7)

The Torah emphasizes the fact that Moshe Rabbeinu’s nevuah, prophesy, is unlike that of other prophets, such as, Aharon and Miriam. Once Horav Simcha Zelig Reiger, z.l., the Av Bais Din of Brisk asked Horav Chaim Soloveitchik, z.l., the significance of the term, “b’chol baisi neeman hu,” “in My entire house he is trusted,” in regard to Moshe’s level of prophesy.
