(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





I will come up into the midst of thee, to wit, in anger; not in favour, Exo_33:3, where the words are the same, but the sense differing,



and consume thee.



Object. But God had promised he would not do so, Exo_33:3.



Answ. That was signified to Moses, not to the people, to whom the threatening was most proper and profitable; and this threatening hath a condition implied, to wit, except they repent, as the next words plainly show.



That I may know what to do unto thee; that I may either inflict my judgments, or suspend them, as thou art penitent or impenitent.
