Moses had been on the Mt. Sinai getting the ten commandments and laws, now God asks him to tell the people what has been said and to invite the elders to come and worship him on the mountain. This is a picture of God’s holiness because not everyone can approach God’s holy power. Also, it is a time for the people to agree to God’s laws and commit to Him.
Exodus 24:1-2 (Ask question 1 after reading)
Exodus 24:3-8 (Ask question 2 after reading)
Exodus 24:9-18 (Ask question 3 after reading)
1. Who is allowed to come and worship? Why isn’t everyone allowed up?
(God is holy and his holiness would destroy the people)
2. What did the people agree to do? How can you commit to follow Jesus in your life?
(To keep the law as God had said. The blood shows that the covenant was costly. It points to Jesus’ blood)
3. What is the description of God and His glory? How can God be so close yet so dangerous?
(God was like a devouring fire on top of the mountain. His wrath is terrifying but he is gracious and draw near to us)
