The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 19:20

On the top of the mount . Not, probably, on the highest point of the Sinaitic group, the Jebel Musa, which is out of sight from the plain Er-Rahah, where the Israelites must have been assembled; but on the highest part of the face of Sinai fronting that plain, the Ras Sufsafeh, which would be to the Israelites at the base "the top of the mount." The Lord called Moses up. Perhaps with Aaron, who certainly accompanied him when he next ascended ( Exodus 19:24 ), and who seems to be... read more

Charge the people lest they break through — i.e; "lest they force a passage through the barrier made by Moses" in accordance with the command given in Exodus 19:12 . And many of them perish . Irreverent gazing on holy things was forbidden by the law ( Numbers 4:20 ), and on one occasion ( 1 Samuel 6:19 ) was actually punished with death. It did not, however, require a law to make it an offence, natural reason being quite sufficient to teach the duty of reverence. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 19:22

Let the priests also . It has been objected, that no priests had been as yet appointed, and that we have here therefore an anachronism. But every nation in ancient times had priests, appointed on one principle or another: and the Levitical priesthood must be regarded as having superseded one previously existent, not as the first priesthood known to Israel. We have a second mention of priests, previous to the appointment of Aaron's sons to the office (in Exodus 24:5 ), which confirms the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 19:22-24

The priestly office does not dispense a man from personal purity, but obliges him the more to it. Holiness of office, of profession, of function is too often regarded as if it secured, by some occult power, the personal holiness of the individual, or even of the class, exercising it. The priest castes of Egypt, India, and other countries, assumed to stand on a completely different footing from the rest of the community in respect of nearness, and acceptability to God. And both under the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 19:23

The people cannot come up . Moses can only have meant, that the people could not approach the mount unwittingly, since the fence commanded ( Exodus 19:12 ) was made. But to scale the fence, or break through it, was of course possible. (See Exodus 19:13 .) read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Exodus 19:24

And the Lord said … Away, Get thee down. God wholly rejected the plea of Moses, that there was no need to give an additional warning. He knew best , and would not have issued the order to "go down and charge the people "( Exodus 19:21 ), unless there had been a need for it. In the abrupt words "Away, get thee down," we may see a rebuke, addressed to Moses, for his folly in thinking that he could change the purposes of God. Thou and Aaron with thee. This is the first express mention of... read more
