Esodo 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.

Esodo 34:31 In-Context

29 Or Mosè, quando scese dal monte Sinai scendendo dal monte Mosè aveva in mano le due tavole della testimonianza non sapeva che la pelle del suo viso era diventata tutta raggiante mentr’egli parlava con l’Eterno;
30 e quando Aaronne e tutti i figliuoli d’Israele videro Mosè, ecco che la pelle del suo viso era tutta raggiante, ed essi temettero d’accostarsi a lui.
31 Ma Mosè li chiamò, ed Aaronne e tutti i capi della raunanza tornarono a lui, e Mosè parlò loro.
32 Dopo questo, tutti i figliuoli d’Israele si accostarono, ed egli ordinò loro tutto quello che l’Eterno gli avea detto sul monte Sinai.
33 E quando Mosè ebbe finito di parlar con loro, si mise un velo sulla faccia.
