Exodus 24:15 In-Context

13 So Moses got up, accompanied by Joshua his aide. And Moses climbed up the mountain of God.
14 He told the elders of Israel, "Wait for us here until we return to you. You have Aaron and Hur with you; if there are any problems, go to them."
15 Then Moses climbed the mountain. The Cloud covered the mountain.
16 The Glory of God settled over Mount Sinai. The Cloud covered it for six days. On the seventh day he called out of the Cloud to Moses.
17 In the view of the Israelites below, the Glory of God looked like a raging fire at the top of the mountain.
