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 set out with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the mountain of God.

14 To the elders he had said, "Wait here for us, until we come to you again; for Aaron and Hur are with you; whoever has a dispute may go to them."

15 Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.

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 out of the cloud.

17 Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel.
