What does the Bible say about the rock that was smitten?

Answered in 1 source

The rock that was smitten in Exodus represents Christ, who had to be wounded for our sins to provide salvation.

In Exodus 17, the rock that Moses struck symbolizes Jesus Christ, the Rock of our salvation. The act of smiting the rock illustrates the necessity of Christ's sacrificial death for the redemption of His people. Just as water flowed from the smitten rock, salvation flows from Christ, who was wounded for our transgressions. This act signifies His atoning sacrifice, fulfilling God's plan for His chosen people.
