Into the midst of the cloud, the God that called him enabling him to enter and abide there; whereas, when he was left to himself, he could not enter into the tabernacle, Exo_40:35.
Forty days and forty nights; in which he did neither eat nor drink, Exo_34:28Deu_9:9,18; whereby it seems most probable the six days mentioned Exo_24:16 were a part of these forty days, because Moses being in perpetual expectation of God’s call, seems not to have had leisure for eating and drinking, nor provision neither. Besides, he is not said to be in the midst of the cloud so long, but only
in the mount, where he was those six days, Exo_24:15,16.
