abstract:Massah () is one of the locations which the Torah identifies as having been travelled through by the Israelites, during the Exodus; although the list of visited stations in the Book of Numbers does not mention it. In the Book of Exodus, Massah is mentioned at the same time as Meribah, in a context which suggests that Massah is the same location as Meribah, but other biblical mentions of Massah and Meribah, such as that in the Blessing of Moses,Massah and Meribah are also referenced in , , and , , and seem to imply that they are distinct locations.
