Source sheet here This Shiur is an exegetical analysis of the biblical passage concerning the Israelites' "murmuring" (כְּמִתְאֹנְנִים) in Numbers 11. The commentators explore the precise meaning of this term, debating whether it refers to a baseless accusation, suffering due to travel, or a rejection of God's plan, with some sources, like Rashi and Midrash Aggadah, suggesting it implies seeking a pretext to abandon God. The text also examines the nature of the sin and the justification for the divine punishment of fire, pondering who exactly was afflicted and why.
