Ex 33:1
33:1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, [and] {a} go up
hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out
of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto
Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will
I give it:
(a) The land of Canaan was surrounded by hills: so those
who entered it, must go up by the hills.
Ex 33:5
33:5 For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of
Israel, Ye [are] a stiffnecked people: I will come up into
the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore
now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know {b}
what to do unto thee.
(b) That I may either show mercy if you repent, or else
punish your rebellion.
Ex 33:7
33:7 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the
camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the {c}
Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, [that]
every one which sought the LORD went out unto the
tabernacle of the congregation, which [was] without the
camp.
(c) That is, the tabernacle of the congregation: so called
because the people turned to it, when they needed to be
instructed of the Lord's will.
Ex 33:11
33:11 And the LORD spake unto Moses {d} face to face, as a man
speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the
camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man,
departed not out of the tabernacle.
(d) Most clearly and familiarly of all others,
@Nu 12:7,8 De 34:10
Ex 33:12
33:12 And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest unto me,
Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom
thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by
{e} name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.
(e) I care for you and will preserve you in your calling.
Ex 33:14
33:14 And he said, My {f} presence shall go [with thee], and I
will give thee rest.
(f) Signifying that the Israelites would exceed all other
people, through God's favour; @Ex 33:16.
Ex 33:18
33:18 And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy {g} glory.
(g) Your face, your substance, and your majesty.
Ex 33:19
33:19 And he said, I will make all my {h} goodness pass before
thee, and I will {i} proclaim the name of the LORD before
thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and
will shew {k} mercy on whom I will shew mercy.
(h) My mercy and fatherly care.
(i) See @Ex 34:6,7.
(k) For finding nothing in man that deserves mercy, he
will freely give his.
Ex 33:20
33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall
no man see me, and {l} live.
(l) For Moses did not see his face in full majesty, but as
man's weakness could bear.
Ex 33:21
33:21 And the LORD said, Behold, [there is] a place by {m} me,
and thou shalt stand upon a rock:
(m) In mount Horeb.
Ex 33:23
33:23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my {n}
back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
(n) As much of my glory as in this mortal life you are
able to see.
