In this week’s Torah portion (Num 8:1–12:16), Moses experiences a profound breakdown when the Israelites demand meat. His reaction is far more severe than it was during previous complaints about food. Before this crisis, he had led the people through repeated breaches of faith without becoming so deeply despairing. This time, however, he cries out to God, declaring that the burden of leadership is too heavy for him to bear alone. He even begs God to kill him rather than force him to continue under such a weight. In response, God does not end Moses's life. Instead, he causes meat to rain down upon the camp until the people grow completely sick of it.
