Verse 20
And the Lord came down on Mount Sinai ,.... In the above visible tokens of his presence and power; otherwise he is the incomprehensible Jehovah, that immense and omnipotent Being, who fills heaven and earth, and cannot be contained and circumscribed in either:
on the top of the mount ; where the fire he descended in rested, and where the smoke and thick cloud were, as a token of his presence:
and the Lord called Moses up to the top of the mount ; who either was at the bottom of it with the people, or in a higher ascent of it between God and them:
and Moses went up ; to the top of it, where the Lord was, as he ordered him: a certain traveller F25 Baumgarten Peregrinatio, l. 1. c. 24. p. 61. tells us that the top of this mount was scarce thirty feet in circumference.
Be the first to react on this!
