The LORD does tell Moses to strike the rock here. In Numbers 20 he tells Moses to speak to the rock.

No in exodus 17 it does talk about Moses getting water from the rock so it was right

Aaron and Hur were called to come alongside to help hold up the arms of Moses.
Who are we called to come alongside and help win a battle?
