Exodus 4:27-28

"And Jehovah said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he went, and met him in the mountain of God, and kissed him. And Moses told Aaron all the words of Jehovah wherewith he had sent him, and all the signs wherewith he had charged him."

Note the brevity of all this. Such things as exactly where the meeting was to take place, and the exact time of it, etc., are all omitted. It is enough that God arranged and effected it. The meeting took place at Sinai, or Horeb. Yes, God had directed Aaron exactly on how to arrive there, just as He did for the messengers of Cornelius who were directed to the house where Peter was staying with "Simon the tanner, whose house was by the seaside" (Acts 10:6).

In this chapter, we have followed the interpretations of those who view the appointment of Aaron as Moses' spokesman as a qualified demotion of the mighty Lawgiver, but, before leaving it, the pertinent comment by Ellison should be considered. It certainly has merit. In the general conceptions prevailing in those times, "Supreme greatness was shown by unwillingness to communicate with ordinary mortals, except through a spokesman (See Acts 14:12).[41] This interpretation harmonizes with the fact that God, apparently, had already intended for Aaron to join in the mission, had already commanded him to join Moses, even before Moses' acceptance. "So often in matters of obedience we discover that God has already started to work before we have said, `Yes'."[42]
