References for Num 17:12 —  1   2 

Num. 17:1–13 This procedure showed who had the right to approach God (16:5).

Num. 17:6 The twelve staffs probably do not include Aaron’s. There are 12 tribes in chs. 1 and 7, so Aaron’s staff brings the number to 13.

Num. 17:10 The miraculous staff was kept in the ark (before the testimony) as a sign and a warning (see note on Heb. 9:4).

Num. 17:12–13 we are undone. Apparently the miracle of Aaron’s staff finally convinced the people that the priests had a special place in the life of the nation.
