How to overcome the defilement of death? The Red Heifer. Like all the essential aspects of living, it doesn’t make sense, it makes life. Miriam, Moses’ sister, passes away in the fortieth year in the wilderness. The people thirst for more than water. Moses is told that by talking to the rock stony matter may be turned to flowing spirit. Moses calculates that actions are stronger than words.

Aaron passes away and the medical sign is invented. Moses leads the people to victory over the Emorite kings and conquers the lands east of the Jordan.
