Exodus 24:15 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 24:15

And Moses went up into the mount
To the top of it, and as it seems alone, leaving Joshua behind in a lower part of the mountain:

and a cloud covered the mount;
in which cloud Jehovah was.

Exodus 24:15 In-Context

13 So Moses arose with his assistant Joshua, and went up the mountain of God.
14 He told the elders, "Wait here for us until we return to you. Aaron and Hur are here with you. Whoever has a dispute should go to them."
15 When Moses went up the mountain, the cloud covered it.
16 The glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day He called to Moses from the cloud.
17 The appearance of the Lord's glory to the Israelites was like a consuming fire on the mountaintop.
