Exode 33:12-14 BDS

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 33:14

Exodus 33:14. My presence shall go with thee Hebrew, My face, I myself, my own person, as the same phrase is translated 2 Samuel 17:11. Or, the angel of my presence, Isaiah 63:9. The meaning is, I will conduct you myself, as I have done hitherto, by my glorious presence in the tabernacle. So that this is a revocation of the sentence pronounced Exodus 33:3. And will give thee rest Not only thee, Moses, from thy present perplexity, but in due time will bring thy people to their rest and... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Exodus 33:1-23

Assurance of God’s presence (33:1-23)Because of his mercy God allowed the people to continue their journey to the land he had promised their ancestors, but because of their sin he could not go with them lest he destroy them. However, he promised to send a heavenly representative to go before them into Canaan. He also required the people to give a clear outward sign of mourning for their past sin and the loss of fellowship with God that resulted from it (33:1-6).God’s refusal to go with Israel... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Exodus 33:12-17

GOD REVOKES THE THREAT OF WITHDRAWAL"And Moses said unto Jehovah, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found favor in my sight. Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thy sight, show me now thy ways, that I may know thee, to the end that I may find favor in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people. And he said, My presence shall go with... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Exodus 33:12

Exodus 33:12. And Moses said unto the Lord— Moses having received, as we may suppose, sufficient proofs of the contrition of the people for their abominable idolatry, now returns to the tabernacle, and renews his intercession for them with the Lord. He had so far prevailed already, as to gain a promise that the Lord would bring the Israelites into the land of Canaan; but the loss of the Divine Presence was too serious an evil not to engage his whole attention: and therefore, as mediator between... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Exodus 33:14

Exodus 33:14. And he said, my presence, &c.— Condescending to the intercession of Moses, the Lord promises that his presence, as usual, shall go with him, and give [Israel] that rest in the promised land which they sought. Le Clerc renders this verse, if my presence shall go with thee, wilt thou be at rest? Wilt thou be satisfied? Which, though rather a harsh translation of the Hebrew, seems to agree well with the answer of Moses; who, expressing (Exodus 33:15.) the highest estimation for... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Exodus 33:12-16

God’s withdrawal from Israel created problems for Moses as Israel’s mediator. If God was not going to enter into covenant relationship to Israel as He had first described (Exodus 13:21-22), how could Moses lead the nation (cf. Exodus 3:11; Exodus 3:13)? This is the focus of Moses’ first request (Exodus 33:13). He wanted reassurance that God Himself would lead Israel in the wilderness. [Note: Ibid., p. 446.] God assured him that He would continue to go with His people and thus provide the rest... read more

Horeb] i.e. Sinai: see on Exodus 3:1.7. Moses took the tabernacle] RV ’Moses used to take the tent,.. and he called it, The tent of meeting’: see on Exodus 25:22.
