Mer'ibah. (strife, contention). In Exodus 17:7, we read, "he called the name of the place, Massah and Meribah," where the people murmured, and the rock was smitten. [For the situation, see Rephidim.] The name is also given to Kadesh, Numbers 20:13; Numbers 20:24; Numbers 27:14; Deuteronomy 32:51, (Meribah-kadesh), because there also the people, when in want of water, strove with God.
