Moses, as covenant mediator, intercedes for Israel with YHWH with the result that God’s glory is displayed even more clearly, clearing the way for the ultimate mediator Jesus Christ.

Israel's history is a glimpse into our own hearts as we see what happens when we forget YHWH and turn to idolatry.

We draw to a close on Mount Sinai. Moses is receiving some of God’s last instructions for him and the Israelites. In this passage God calls His people to be a working people, a resting people and people identified by their relationship with Him.

As we move from who the priest are to the duties they perform we see that God has given a gracious pattern for worship that continues to give shape to the life of believers today.

In the Book of the Covenant God establishes a vision for society that is generous and just rooted in God's own love for his people.

Our compassionate God gave laws to the Israelites pertaining to their cultural context that, by using good questions and discernment together in community, we might articulate broad principles to apply God's values to our own cultural context.

In the Book of the Covenant we meet a gracious God who teaches a slave people how to live freely.

Exodus 24 is the centerpoint of God's establishment of the covenant with Israel that was promised in Exodus 6. In it we see a pattern for God's love for his church that culminates in Jesus Christ.
