Reflections on Exodus 33-34

Moses continues to intercede and asks to see God’s glory.  Consider:

  • God’s Presence – God threatens to not go with the people.  This is devastating news!  Moses again intercedes for the people; he doesn’t want to go if God is not with him.  Is God’s presence that important to you?  Why?
  • God’s Revelation – Moses asks to see God, and God reveals himself to Moses.  This revelation primarily takes the form of proclamation.  Read 34:5-8 again, and ponder the God we serve.  Then follow Moses’ example and bow down in worship before the one true God.
