Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Exodus 3:5
Draw not nigh hither; keep thy distance; whereby he checks his curiosity and forwardness, and works him to the greater reverence and humility. Compare Exodus 19:12,Exodus 19:21; Joshua 5:15. Put off thy shoes: this he requires as an act and token, 1. Of his reverence to the Divine Majesty, then and there eminently present. 2. Of his humiliation for his sins, whereby he was unfit and unworthy to appear before God; for this was a posture of humiliation, 2 Samuel 15:30; Isaiah 20:2,Isaiah 20:4;... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Exodus 3:1-6
MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Exodus 3:1-6MAN IN RELATION TO MYSTERYI. That sometimes men meet with mystery in the pursuit of their daily calling. “Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro.” Very often, in the pursuit of daily work are good and heroic men—who are in the path of Providence—called upon to witness great sights, such as are not permitted to weak, restless, and unthinking souls. The daily avocation of a good man may lead into mystery—or break into heavenly vision at any point—which... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Exodus 3:1-14
Exodus 3:1-14 This narrative is a chain of glorious wonders. We see here I. An old man called to go out on the great errand of his life. The education of Moses for the great mission of his life lasted eighty years. God never sends forth fruit until the season is fitted for the fruit, and the fruit for the season; when the hour was ready for the man, and the man for the hour, then God sent forth Moses. II. The burning bush from which that call was sounded. (1) This was a sign to indicate the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Exodus 3:2-6
Exodus 3:2-6 I. The vision. (1) The vision was miraculous. (2) Moses had this vision when he was in solitude. (3) It was symbolic ( a ) of Israel in Egypt; ( b ) of the Church in the world; (c) of the truth of the Gospel; ( d ) of ourselves who have the religious life within us. II. The voice. (1) It revealed the majesty and grandeur of God. (2) The voice revealed the special providence of the great God the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. (3) The voice proclaimed the faithfulness of God.... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Exodus 3:5
Exodus 3:5 I. The essence of reverence lies in our forming a true estimate of our place amongst the powers around us, and so understanding aright and habitually feeling what is our relation to them. Now, to do this, (1) we must apprehend something of the mystery of life in ourselves and in others; (2) we must recognise the distinction of the different grades of being in those in whom life is, and seek to find and to keep our own due place in that mighty and marvellous scale of existences. II.... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Exodus 3:1-22
Chapter 3Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to mount Horeb ( Exodus 3:1 ).Now no doubt Moses' experiences there in the wilderness were going to be necessary experiences. Number one, while he was there he was learning the lay of the land. As he was out there as a shepherd following the flocks through the Sinai desert and around Mount Horeb, he became very well... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 3:1-22
Exodus 3:1. Horeb and Sinai are the same mountain, almost surrounded by two branches of the Red sea. But it has two summits, Sinai on the east, and Horeb on the west. Justinian built a monastery here, and made it the seat of a bishop. They show strangers the identical spot where Moses, by the Lord’s command, caused the waters to flow. The Mussulmans have this place in very great veneration. Exodus 3:2. Angel of the Lord. Malack, the messenger, the angel of the covenant. Malachi 3:1.... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Exodus 3:1-6
Exodus 3:1-6A flame of fire out of the midst of a bush.Moses at the burning bushI. The story of Moses is the story, at first, of failure. Two great streams of influences moulded his life--the one drawn from the Egyptian surroundings of his early days, and the other drunk in with his mother’s milk and his mother’s teaching. On the one side he had before him the revelation of the world in its majesty and power, brute energy and magnificence, massive purpose and force, and splendid genius, with a... read more
