21 And the Lord said to Moses, “Go down and warn the people, lest they break through ato gaze at the Lord, and many of them perish.  
22 Also let the apriests who come near the Lord bconsecrate themselves, lest the Lord cbreak out against them.”  
23 But Moses said to the Lord, “The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai; for You warned us, saying, a‘Set bounds around the mountain and consecrate it.’ ”  
24 Then the Lord said to him, “Away! Get down and then come up, you and Aaron with you. But do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, lest He break out against them.”
25 So Moses went down to the people and spoke to them.

Exodus

EXODUS, a "going forth," derives its name from its being occupied principally with a relation of the departure of the Israelites from Egypt, and the incidents that immediately preceded as well as followed that memorable migration. Its authorship by Moses is distinctly asserted by himself (Exodus 24:4), as well as by our Lord (Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37). Besides, the thorough knowledge it exhibits of the institutions and usages of the ancient Egyptians and the minute geographical details of the journey to Sinai, establish in the clearest manner the authenticity of this book.
