The name "Rissah" means "dew" or "drizzle," which may indicate a place where water was present, a crucial resource for the Israelites during their travels. This stage of the journey reflects the transient nature of the Israelites' wanderings, emphasizing their reliance on God's guidance and provision. The movement from one location to another signifies the ongoing fulfillment of God's promise to lead His people to the Promised Land, a theme that resonates throughout the Pentateuch.<p><b>and camped at Kehelathah</b><br>Kehelathah, meaning "assembly" or "gathering," suggests a place where the Israelites may have come together for communal activities or worship. This name underscores the importance of community and unity among the Israelites as they journeyed. The encampment at Kehelathah is part of the broader narrative of the Israelites' 40-year journey, which serves as a period of testing and preparation for entering Canaan. The movement from Rissah to Kehelathah is a small but significant step in the larger story of redemption and covenant fulfillment. This journey can be seen as a type of the Christian life, where believers are called to follow God's leading through various stages and challenges, ultimately looking forward to the eternal Promised Land.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/r/rissah.htm">Rissah</a></b><br>A location mentioned in the Israelites' journey through the wilderness.
