15 When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it,
15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
15 Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.
15 Then Moses climbed the mountain. The Cloud covered the mountain.
15 Then Moses went up into the mountain, and a cloud covered the mountain.
15 Then Moses climbed up the mountain, and the cloud covered it.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Exodus 24:15
Commentary on Exodus 24:12-18
(Read Exodus 24:12-18)
A cloud covered the mount six days; a token of God's special presence there. Moses was sure that he who called him up would protect him. Even those glorious attributes of God which are most terrible to the wicked, the saints with humble reverence rejoice in. And through faith in the atoning Sacrifice, we hope for greater honour than Moses ever enjoyed on earth. Now we see through a glass darkly, but when he shall appear, then face to face. This vision of God will continue with equal, if not increasing brightness of joy; not for a few days only, but through eternity.
