Exodus 33 - 34

ExodusSteve Gregg
Exodus 33-34 describes Moses' conversation with God, where he asks to see His glory but is told that no man can see His face and live. God promises to send an angel to lead the people into the Promised Land, but Moses insists on having God's presence with them. The people display true repentance and humility, and God proclaims His name and character as merciful, gracious, and forgiving. The section emphasizes the importance of both God's mercy and justice, as well as His leading characteristics of mercy, patience, and forgiveness. Ultimately, it sets the stage for the building of the tabernacle in future verses.
