But cloud by day and fire by night, the token of is presence was ever before all Israel (versesExodus 40:34-38; Exodus 40:34-38). So they are going to destroy themselves. By the law he died to the law that he might live to God. "And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant the Ten commandments.". Then follows the ritual required in the act of consecrating Aaron and his sons. The pardon of Israel's sin in worshipping the calf was now to pass the seals; and God, by this declaration, would let them know that he pardoned ex mero motu--merely out of his own good pleasure, not for their merits' sake, but from his own inclination to forgive. You bet your life you would. It was the state in which the children of Israel were put here, and was a very great mercy for them in a certain sense. So in the Old Testament we have a God of grace and mercy, and longsuffering and forgiveness revealed to us. _ 1. The Divine name was proclaimed condescendingly. But, again, Aaron with the golden plate (engraved "Holiness to Jehovah") always on his forehead, bears the iniquity of Israel's holy things that they may be accepted; an important consideration, especially when we know the seriousness and the facility of iniquity therein. He sometimes will do it, especially for the punishment of idolaters. Thus he is sanctified by the Spirit unto the obedience and the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus. Hence, as duty is ever measured by responsibility, that of the Christian is according to the place in which grace has put him. In divine things there is nothing like simplicity; by it we enjoy a wisdom far higher than our own and real power to strengthen and guide the heart. Additional reminders concerned requirements for sacrifices and firstfruits (25-26; see 23:18-19).God then made a declaration that the covenant Israel had broken was now re-established. The name el, is added, which, originally derived from strength, is often used for God, and is one of His names. (381) Should ye be utterly unpunished? Art thou he, that shall altogether go unpunished? A. V.

Law is essentially incapable of helping, because being only a claim on God's part, and a definition of His demands, it can only condemn him whose condition makes due obedience impossible. Therefore whatever the work introduced meanwhile whether of grace, as the effectual working of God, or whether of law as proving the inefficiency of man He always holds out His rest, to which He would also direct the eyes of all who love Him. God in his grace would renew the covenant, and to this end he called Moses back up the mountain. prayer. Active; forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin.. And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. God does not stop here. It is false that the law is dead. Number one, why the veil over the face of Moses? And all the women that were wise hearted did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun, both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen. Thus 2 Corinthians 5:1-21 corresponds with the ark rather than the brazen altar. Yahweh Makes A Proclamation Concerning Himself To His People's Representative (Exodus 34:5). The Christian has it also, and in a far better way. For instance, in the earlier half of Exodus, where we have God's dealings in grace, the Sabbath-day is brought in, marked out by the bread God provided for His people, the manna the figure of Christ come down from heaven to be the food of the hungry on earth: then followed the Sabbath at once. They are quoted in Nehemiah 9:17; Psalms 86:15; 103:8; 145:8; Joel 2:15; Jonah 4:2; and also Numbers 14:18. We should remember that we are heavenly now (1 Corinthians 15:1-58) as truly as we ever shall be. 28 Moses afte And the Lord descended in the cloud, in the pillar in which His glory I grant you this that, looked at as a whole, distressing failure was setting in just as it was here; yet as here the very failure isolated the truehearted, but isolated them not in want of love but in the strongest possible manifestation of divine charity and sense of God's glory. In the scene which follows we have the magnificent pleading of Moses still more touchingly, and, I am persuaded, in advance on what went before. For the first time the face of Moses shines after communications with God. 448-49. Then we have the veil and screen. (1.) The proclaiming of it denotes the universal extent of God's mercy. At the same time the righteousness of the law is fulfilled so much the more in those that "walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit.". Next, when the law was given, in the very centre of its requirements stands the Sabbath-day. Thanks be to God who gives us the victory by our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank God there's always a way out, there's always-God has provided a way out through the blood of Jesus Christ that can wash, and cleanse us. And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. Very often it is not so little a while, as many of us know to our cost. [Note: See J. Carl Laney, "Gods Self-Revelation in Exodus 34:6-8," Bibliotheca Sacra 158:629 (January-March 2001):36-51.]. He will not give up his love and desire for Israel. Perhaps he has not peace at once, but at any rate he is thoroughly arrested; he desires earnestly to know the gospel from the very first. So if their dads were guilty of doing a stupid thing, they'll usually follow that because that's the role model that they had. 6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. with Moses. Abundant; to Gods goodness there is no limit. For, as we said, the sanctification is "to obedience;" and this is the very first desire implanted in a soul from the moment that there is a real divine work in him.

They greatly err who in this sense quote "Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin," and stop there. Every Christian has a nature that is intrinsically divine, as we are told in 2 Peter 1:1-21. Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. What a motive for parents! It is not thus that the believer, even if a Jew and therefore under law, was withdrawn from its condemning power. Thou shalt not seethe kid in his mother's milk. fulfill three conditions: (1) _Earliness_: My soul, be ready in the (2.) (2.) pillar, which was now gone up from the door of the tabernacle, and was ", At once we find him reproaching Aaron, the most responsible man there, who makes a sorry excuse, not without sin. No society can exist that is that corrupted. He forgives offences of all sorts--iniquity, transgression, and sin, multiplies his pardons; and with him is plenteous redemption. Yet we know on the best authority that Moses loved the people as not another soul in the camp did. Is it not true that there is scarce anything in which we feel more the need of gracious care than in the holy things of God? I speak of our relationship and title. We may know and ought to judge what is passing in the world, though it be through an imperfect medium; but we know heaven and heavenly things from God. If his master have given him a wife, and she have borne him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself. Had He dealt on the ground of pure law, how could it have been? This was the second proclamation. But not so: it will take a new shape. This is the peculiarity. He is the intrinsic power by which the truth is received into the heart, but Christ is the object. Once more the Divine justice operates through natural laws, visiting the iniquity of the fathers, &c. How? He prized you so highly that He sent His Son to die for your sins so that He could have you for His own. 2. What we find here then is not law pure and simple, but law with mercy and goodness and long-suffering in the government of God His condescending love and patience mingled along with law. Long-suffering; as also in Numbers 14:18, and Psalms 86:15. They may prosper for the time, but a heavy retribution awaits them. The knowledge of Israel in the millennium will be genuine, for they shall be all taught of God. WebIn this chapter Moses has orders to hew two tables of stone, that God might write on them the ten commands, and bring them up with him to the mount, Ex 34:1-4 where the Lord They that are of Christ Jesus crucified the flesh with its affections and lusts. But we may refer toExodus 35:1-35; Exodus 35:1-35 as the witness to the zeal of the congregation for the construction and service of the sanctuary, opened by the law of the sabbath stated here for the last time in the book. This I maintain to be peculiar to Christianity in all its fulness. But we must not be driven into any error, even the least to avoid the greatest; and it is certainly an error to swamp in one all the ways of God with the soul. We have reason gratefully to acknowledge God's goodness to us, not only in the real instances of it, but in the declarations he has made of it by his word; not only that he is, and will be, gracious to us, but that he is pleased to let us know it. This always abides; for the law is lawful if a man use it lawfully. So three times a year they were to appear before God, the God of Israel. Secondly, it cannot give life; and this is another necessity of man. The children have to suffer because of the sins of the parents.There are even worse cases of children suffering for the sins of the parent, for there are parents who are-mothers who are addicted to drugs.

And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. Very often it is not so little a while, as many of us know to our cost. [Note: See J. Carl Laney, "Gods Self-Revelation in Exodus 34:6-8," Bibliotheca Sacra 158:629 (January-March 2001):36-51.]. He will not give up his love and desire for Israel. Perhaps he has not peace at once, but at any rate he is thoroughly arrested; he desires earnestly to know the gospel from the very first. So if their dads were guilty of doing a stupid thing, they'll usually follow that because that's the role model that they had. 6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. with Moses. Abundant; to Gods goodness there is no limit. For, as we said, the sanctification is "to obedience;" and this is the very first desire implanted in a soul from the moment that there is a real divine work in him.

They greatly err who in this sense quote "Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin," and stop there. Every Christian has a nature that is intrinsically divine, as we are told in 2 Peter 1:1-21. Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. What a motive for parents! It is not thus that the believer, even if a Jew and therefore under law, was withdrawn from its condemning power. Thou shalt not seethe kid in his mother's milk. fulfill three conditions: (1) _Earliness_: My soul, be ready in the (2.) (2.) pillar, which was now gone up from the door of the tabernacle, and was ", At once we find him reproaching Aaron, the most responsible man there, who makes a sorry excuse, not without sin. No society can exist that is that corrupted. He forgives offences of all sorts--iniquity, transgression, and sin, multiplies his pardons; and with him is plenteous redemption. Yet we know on the best authority that Moses loved the people as not another soul in the camp did. Is it not true that there is scarce anything in which we feel more the need of gracious care than in the holy things of God? I speak of our relationship and title. We may know and ought to judge what is passing in the world, though it be through an imperfect medium; but we know heaven and heavenly things from God. If his master have given him a wife, and she have borne him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself. Had He dealt on the ground of pure law, how could it have been? This was the second proclamation. But not so: it will take a new shape. This is the peculiarity. He is the intrinsic power by which the truth is received into the heart, but Christ is the object. Once more the Divine justice operates through natural laws, visiting the iniquity of the fathers, &c. How? He prized you so highly that He sent His Son to die for your sins so that He could have you for His own. 2. What we find here then is not law pure and simple, but law with mercy and goodness and long-suffering in the government of God His condescending love and patience mingled along with law. Long-suffering; as also in Numbers 14:18, and Psalms 86:15. They may prosper for the time, but a heavy retribution awaits them. The knowledge of Israel in the millennium will be genuine, for they shall be all taught of God. WebIn this chapter Moses has orders to hew two tables of stone, that God might write on them the ten commands, and bring them up with him to the mount, Ex 34:1-4 where the Lord They that are of Christ Jesus crucified the flesh with its affections and lusts. But we may refer toExodus 35:1-35; Exodus 35:1-35 as the witness to the zeal of the congregation for the construction and service of the sanctuary, opened by the law of the sabbath stated here for the last time in the book. This I maintain to be peculiar to Christianity in all its fulness. But we must not be driven into any error, even the least to avoid the greatest; and it is certainly an error to swamp in one all the ways of God with the soul. We have reason gratefully to acknowledge God's goodness to us, not only in the real instances of it, but in the declarations he has made of it by his word; not only that he is, and will be, gracious to us, but that he is pleased to let us know it. This always abides; for the law is lawful if a man use it lawfully. So three times a year they were to appear before God, the God of Israel. Secondly, it cannot give life; and this is another necessity of man. The children have to suffer because of the sins of the parents.There are even worse cases of children suffering for the sins of the parent, for there are parents who are-mothers who are addicted to drugs.
