Moses' fundamental character flaw - his perfectionist nature and lack of faith in his people's capacity for redemption - emerges through careful analysis of his divine calling in Exodus and his final failure at Meribah. By applying hermeneutical methods to decode symbolic and allegorical meanings, the biblical narrative reveals itself as "dream language" that demands interpretation beyond literal reading. Close textual analysis combined with symbolic interpretation of key biblical images, including the burning bush, divine signs, and water imagery, illuminates the psychological complexity of Moses' leadership journey. The three divine signs given to Moses function as hieroglyphic symbols of revolutionary hope rather than mere miracles, while his illness at the inn reflects the psychological strain of accepting leadership burdens. Structural parallels between Moses' initial reluctance at the burning bush and his ultimate failure at Meribah - where his command to "speak to the rock" becomes an allegory for failed leadership through force rather than persuasion - reveal a tragic trajectory. Moses ultimately forfeits his entry to the Promised Land not through simple disobedience, but through a fundamental loss of redemptive faith in his people, unable to bridge the gap between prophetic vision and popular leadership.
