Exodus 24:13

Exodus 24:13

11 But on the nobles of the children of Israel He ^adid not lay His hand. So ^bthey saw God, and they ^cate and drank.

12 Then the Lord said to Moses, ^a“Come up to Me on the mountain and be there; and I will give you ^btablets of stone, and the law and commandments which I have written, that you may teach them.”

13 So Moses arose with ^ahis assistant Joshua, and Moses went up to the mountain of God.

14 And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we come back to you. Indeed, Aaron and ^aHur are with you. If any man has a difficulty, let him go to them.”

15 Then Moses went up into the mountain, and ^aa cloud covered the mountain.

16 Now ^athe glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day He called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

17 The sight of the glory of the Lord was like ^aa consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel.

18 So Moses went into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mountain. And ^aMoses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.

Moses went up into the mount of God—He was called to receive the divine transcript. Joshua was taken a little higher, and it would be a great comfort for the leader to have his company during the six days he was in patient waiting for the call on the seventh or sabbath day.
