THE TORAH
EXODUS
SHEMOT
The book of Exodus, known as Shemot in Hebrew, is the second book of the Torah. It continues the narrative of the Israelites’ journey and their development as a nation after the book of Genesis.
The book of Exodus chronicles the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, the revelation of the Ten Commandments and the establishment of the covenant at Mount Sinai, and the journey towards the Promised Land. It highlights the leadership of Moses, the miracles performed by G-d, and the development of the Israelite nation as a chosen people.
Chapter 33
Exodus Chapter 33 is Another Level Talk of Moses with G-d
In Chapter 3 G-d Revealed Himself To Moses
In This Chapter It Is Even Deeper
But in both chapters G-d never mentioned or revealed His identity as 3-in-1 or 1-but-3; neither Trinity or Triune, nor the Father, Son & Spirit.
These could have been the perfect time; given if the Greek book – New Testament teaching is true about Jesus. All Jews should have converted to become Christians.

“Moses’ Tent”
“G-d’s Nearness is Pleaded by Moses”
“G-d Limits Moses’ Vision”
Hashem spoke to Moses, “Go, ascend from here, you and the people whom you brought up from the land of Egypt, to the land about which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I shall give it to your offspring.’
33:1
I shall send an angel ahead of you, and I shall drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivvite, and the Jebusite –
:2
When Moses would arrive at the Tent, a pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the entrance of the Tent, and He would speak with Moses.
:9
Hashem would speak to Moses face to face, as a man would speak with his fellow; …
:11
And now, if I have indeed found favor in Your eyes, make Your way known to me, so that I know You, so that I may find favor in Your eyes. And see that this nation is Your people.”
:13
He said, “My Presence will go and provide you rest.”
:14
How, then, will it be known that I have found favor in Your eyes – I and Your people – unless You accompany us, and I and your people will be made distinct from every people on the face of the earth!”
:16
Hashem said to Moses, “Even this thing of which you spoke I shall do, for you have found favor in My eyes, and I have known you by name.”
:17
He said, “I shall make all My goodness pass before you, and I shall call out with the Name Hashem before you; I shall show favor when I choose to show favor, and I shall show mercy when I choose to show mercy.”
:19
He said, “You will not be able to see My face, for no human can see Me and live.”
:20
When My glory passes by, I shall place you in a cleft of the rock; I shall shield you with My hand until I have passed.
:22
Then I shall remove My hand and you will see My back, but My face may not be seen.”
:23
1 The Lord spoke to Moses: “Go, ascend from here, you and the people you have brought up from the land of Egypt, to the land that I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying: ‘I will give it to your descendants.’
2 I will send an angel before you, and I will drive out the Canaanites, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivvites, and the Jebusites
3 to a land flowing with milk and honey; because I will not go up in your midst since you are a stiff necked people, lest I destroy you on the way.”
4 [When] the people heard this bad news, they mourned, and no one put on his finery.
5 And the Lord said to Moses: “Say to the children of Israel: ‘You are a stiff necked people; if I go up into your midst for one moment, I will destroy you; but now, leave off your finery, and I will know what to do to you.’ “
6 So the children of Israel divested themselves of their finery from Mount Horeb.
7 And Moses took the tent and pitched it for himself outside the camp, distancing [it] from the camp, and he called it the tent of meeting, and it would be that anyone seeking the Lord would go out to the tent of meeting, which was outside the camp.
8 And it would be that when Moses would go out to the tent, all the people would rise and stand, each one at the entrance of his tent, and they would gaze after Moses until he went into the tent.
9 And it would be that when Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the entrance of the tent, and He would speak with Moses.
10 When all the people would see the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance of the tent, all the people would rise and prostrate themselves, each one at the entrance of his tent.
11 Then the Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as a man would speak to his companion, and he would return to the camp, but his attendant, Joshua, the son of Nun, a lad, would not depart from the tent.
12 Moses said to the Lord: “Look, You say to me: ‘Bring this people up!’ But You have not informed me whom You will send with me. And You said: ‘I have known you by name and you have also found favor in My eyes.’
13 And now, if I have indeed found favor in Your eyes, pray let me know Your ways, so that I may know You, so that I may find favor in Your eyes; and consider that this nation is Your people.”
14 So He said, “My Presence will go, and I will give you rest.”
15 And he said to Him, “If Your Presence does not go [with us], do not take us up from here.
16 For how then will it be known that I have found favor in Your eyes, I and Your people? Is it not in that You will go with us? Then I and Your people will be distinguished from every [other] nation on the face of the earth.”
17 And the Lord said to Moses: “Even this thing that you have spoken, I will do, for you have found favor in My eyes, and I have known you by name.”
18 And he said: “Show me, now, Your glory!”
19 He said: “I will let all My goodness pass before you; I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you, and I will favor when I wish to favor, and I will have compassion when I wish to have compassion.”
20 And He said, “You will not be able to see My face, for man shall not see Me and live.”
21 And the Lord said: “Behold, there is a place with Me, and you shall stand on the rock.
22 And it shall be that when My glory passes by, I will place you into the cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with My hand until I have passed by.
23 Then I will remove My hand, and you will see My back but My face shall not be seen.”

TORAH
(Law)
The book of Deuteronomy, also known as Devarim in Hebrew (“Words”), is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament. It contains a series of speeches by Moses to the Israelites, just before they are about to enter the promised land, which summarize and expand upon many of the laws and commandments given in the earlier books of the Torah. The word Deuteronomy literally means “second law,” indicating that Moses is rehearsing the law with the Israelites before they enter the land.
The book is often seen as a sort of farewell address by Moses, containing some of his final instructions and blessings to the people he has led for many years. It emphasizes the importance of following G-d’s commandments and remaining faithful to Him, while warning against the dangers of disobedience and idolatry. Overall, Deuteronomy serves as a significant text in the history of Judaism and Christianity, containing many of the foundational beliefs and values of these religions.
