Exodus 34
Exodus 34:1 And the Lord said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto
the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first
tables, which thou brakest.
-
Exodus 32:16 And the tables were
the work of God, and the writing was the
writing of God, graven upon the tables.
2 And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and
present thyself there to me in the top of the mount.
3 And no man shall come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all
the mount; neither let the flocks nor herds feed before that mount.
4 And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first; and Moses rose up early
in the morning, and went up unto mount Sinai, as the Lord had commanded him, and
took in his hand the two tables of stone.
5 And the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed
the name of the Lord.
-
Exodus 33:19 And he said, I will make all my
goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim
the name of the LORD before thee; and will be
gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will
shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.
6 And the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed, The Lord, The Lord God,
merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,
7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and
that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers
upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the
fourth generation.
8 And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.
9 And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I
pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiff necked people; and pardon our iniquity
and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance.
-
For = The moment God speaks of grace,
Moses turns the very charge of God. into a plea
and ground for His presence.
-
Exodus 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 what to do unto thee.
10 And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do
marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all
the people among which thou art shall see the work of the Lord: for it is a
terrible thing that I will do with thee.
11 Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before
thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the
Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the
land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:
13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their
groves:
14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is
a jealous God:
-
God does not like it when men started going
after other gods
15 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a
whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee,
and thou eat of his sacrifice;
16 And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a
whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
17 Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
18 The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat
unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the
month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
19 All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle,
whether ox or sheep, that is male.
20 But the firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem
him not, then shalt thou break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou
shalt redeem. And none shall appear before me empty.
21 Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing
time and in harvest thou shalt rest.
22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat
harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.
23 Thrice in the year shall all your men children appear before the Lord God,
the God of Israel.
24 For I will cast out the nations before thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither
shall any man desire thy land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the Lord
thy God thrice in the year.
25 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the
sacrifice of the feast of the Passover be left unto the morning.
26 The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of
the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
27 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of
these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.
28 And he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did neither
eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the
covenant, the ten commandments.
29 And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two
tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that Moses
wist not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.
30 And when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of
his face shone; and they were afraid to come nigh him.
31 And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation
returned unto him: and Moses talked with them.
32 And afterward all the children of Israel came nigh: and he gave them in
commandment all that the Lord had spoken with him in mount Sinai.
33 And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face.
34 But when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the vail
off, until he came out. And he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel
that which he was commanded.
35 And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses'
face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to
speak with him.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
