Êxodo 34:31 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 34:31

And Moses called unto them
Who, as it appears by what follows, on sight of him were so terrified, that they did not proceed on to meet him, but went back, and therefore he called unto them to return and come forward:

and Aaron and all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him;
knowing him by his voice, and encouraged by his call of them, who before might take him to be something more than human, some glorious form, one of the heavenly angels appearing in this manner:

and Moses talked with them;
after he had put a vail on his face, of which there is an account in the following verses. He talked with them friendly, and told them all that had happened to him in the mount; what a glorious sight he had been indulged with; what a proclamation of the grace and goodness of God had been made to him; and what laws and ordinances God had enjoined him and them the observance of.

Êxodo 34:31 In-Context

29 Quando Moisés desceu do monte Sinai, trazendo nas mãos as duas tsbuas do testemunho, sim, quando desceu do monte, Moisés não sabia que a pele do seu rosto resplandecia, por haver Deus falado com ele.
30 Quando, pois, Arão e todos os filhos de Israel olharam para Moisés, eis que a pele do seu rosto resplandecia, pelo que tiveram medo de aproximar-se dele.
31 Então Moisés os chamou, e Arão e todos os príncipes da congregação tornaram a ele; e Moisés lhes falou.
32 Depois chegaram também todos os filhos de Israel, e ele lhes ordenou tudo o que o Senhor lhe falara no monte Sinai.
33 Assim que Moisés acabou de falar com eles, pôs um véu sobre o rosto.
