Exodus 33:7
Compare all
5 For the Lord had said to Moses, “Say to the children of Israel, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. I could come up into your midst in one moment and consume you. Now therefore, take off your1 ornaments, that I may aknow what to do to you.’ ”  
6 So the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by Mount Horeb.

Moses Meets with the Lord

7 Moses took his tent and pitched it outside the camp, far from the camp, and acalled it the tabernacle of meeting. And it came to pass that everyone who bsought the Lord went out to the tabernacle of meeting which was outside the camp.  
8 So it was, whenever Moses went out to the tabernacle, that all the people rose, and each man stood aat his tent door and watched Moses until he had gone into the tabernacle.  
9 And it came to pass, when Moses entered the tabernacle, that the pillar of cloud descended and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord atalked with Moses.  
10 All the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the tabernacle door, and all the people rose and aworshiped, each man in his tent door.  
11 So athe Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. And he would return to the camp, but bhis servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart from the tabernacle.  

The Promise of God’s Presence

12 Then Moses said to the Lord, “See, aYou say to me, ‘Bring up this people.’ But You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You have said, b‘I know you by name, and you have also found grace in My sight.’  
13 Now therefore, I pray, aif I have found grace in Your sight, bshow me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is cYour people.”

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.
