Moshe wrote down the travels of Bnei Yisrael because these journeys represent the detailed extraction from the 49 levels of impurity they encountered in Mitzrayim. Each travel stage was a specific step in their spiritual repair. Including the 7 camps they returned to, there were 49 stages in total, paralleling the 49 levels of impurity.This highlights Moshe’s greatness, as he guided Bnei Yisrael through all these stages from Mitzrayim to Eretz Yisrael, even though he didn't need it for himself. Similarly, each person of Yisrael, called מהלך (one who moves), must remember all the stages they went through from the beginning of their journey to achieve true humility. We see this with Yaakov Avinu, who, when leaving Lavan’s house, recalled his original journey and stated, “For with my staff I crossed the Jordan.” He remembered all he had endured over the past 20 years without forgetting his initial level, which brought him to true humility.
