God had asked Moses and Aaron to command the rock at Mount Sinai to yield water on its own and had never asked Moses and Aaron to strike the rock with the rod given to them by God. However, Moses was accused of this sin of striking the rock twice with the rod to yield water. God was unhappy with Moses because Moses was disobedient and did not obey the command of God to trust God and command the rock with the rod to yield water. Instead, Moses had struck the rock with rod twice which showed sheer frustration on the part of Moses (Nilsen, 2017).
