Biblical Studies Press, 2005) ### The Lord Ratifies the Covenant [[#Verse 01.]] But to Moses the Lord said, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship from a distance.  [[#Verse 02.]] Moses alone may come near the Lord, but the others must not come near, nor may the people go up with him.” [[#Verse 03.]] Moses came and told the people all the Lord’s words and all the decisions. All the people answered together, “We are willing to do all the words that the Lord has said,”  [[#Verse 04.]] and Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord. Early in the morning he built an altar at the foot of the mountain and arranged twelve standing stones—according to the twelve tribes of Israel.  [[#Verse 05.]] He sent young Israelite men, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls for peace offerings to the Lord.  [[#Verse 06.]] Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and half of the blood he splashed on the altar.  [[#Verse 07.]] He took the Book of the Covenant and read it aloud to the people, and they said, “We are willing to do and obey all that the Lord has spoken.”  [[#Verse 08.]] So Moses took the blood and splashed it on the people and said, “This is the blood of the covenant that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.” [[#Verse 09.]] Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and the seventy elders of Israel went up,  [[#Verse 10.]] and they saw the God of Israel. Under his feet there was something like a pavement made of sapphire, clear like the sky itself.  [[#Verse 11.]] But he did not lay a hand on the leaders of the Israelites, so they saw God, and they ate and they drank. [[#Verse 12.]] The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and remain there, and I will give you the stone tablets with the law and the commandments that I have written, so that you may teach them.”  [[#Verse 13.]] So Moses set out with Joshua his attendant, and Moses went up the mountain of God.  [[#Verse 14.]] He told the elders, “Wait for us in this place until we return to you. Here are Aaron and Hur with you. Whoever has any matters of dispute can approach them.” [[#Verse 15.]] Moses went up the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.  [[#Verse 16.]] The glory of the Lord resided on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day he called to Moses from within the cloud.  [[#Verse 17.]] Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in plain view of the people.  [[#Verse 18.]] Moses went into the cloud when he went up the mountain, and Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights. ## ==📖 Verse-by-Verse Commentary== ###### Verse 01. ###### Verse 02. ###### Verse 03. ###### Verse 04. ###### Verse 05. ###### Verse 06. ###### Verse 07. ###### Verse 08. ###### Verse 09. ###### Verse 10. ###### Verse 11. ###### Verse 12. ###### Verse 13. ###### Verse 14. ###### Verse 15. ###### Verse 16. ###### Verse 17. ###### Verse 18. ## 🤔 Interesting Facts / Historical and Cultural Insights - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write down things that are not straight from commentary but interesting facts that ground the text in history. %% ## 🧠 Chapter Summary - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write a short paragraph (3–5 sentences) summarizing what happens in this chapter. - What is the main event or teaching? - How does this chapter fit the book’s overall story? - What stands out immediately?
