- 0:13Hello friends. It is shown here it is Tuesday.
- 0:17It is the 20th of June. It is almost up to the shortest
- 0:23day of the year that is coming up in another couple of days.
- 0:26That's Thursdays Trace, but for today, it is still If if you're
- 0:30here with me in this part of the world boy, the days are getting
- 0:34shorter and shorter and it's just outrageous if you have got
- 0:38a fireplace and maybe even a barrel of Port, you're in luck,
- 0:44and a couple of blocks of chocolate and hopefully not too
- 0:47much to be productive in the evenings.
- 0:49You can sit quietly by the Fireside that sounds like a very
- 0:53good idea. But in the meantime you and I
- 0:55have got something important to do.
- 0:57We are going to continue reading Heading toward the end of this
- 1:02book of Exodus. And today is the day that after
- 1:06Moses, in his fit of anger, through down those stone
- 1:10tablets. It is time for him to get some
- 1:13Replacements, so join me as we head back to the desert, with
- 1:18Moses. And those naughty naughty,
- 1:21people of Israel, as we read together, Exodus chapter 34
- 1:36Then the Lord told Moses chisel out two stone tablets like the
- 1:41first ones I will write on them the same words that were on the
- 1:45tablets, you smashed be ready in the morning to climb up.
- 1:49Mount Sinai and present yourself to me at the top of the
- 1:52mountain. No one else may come with you.
- 1:55In fact, no one else has to appear anywhere on the mountain.
- 1:59Do not even let the flocks or herds graze near the mountain.
- 2:04So Moses chiseled out two tablets of stone like the first
- 2:07ones early in the morning. He climbed Mount Sinai as the
- 2:11Lord had commanded him and he carried the two stone tablets in
- 2:15his hands. Then the Lord came down in a
- 2:19cloud and stood there with him and he called out his own name.
- 2:23Yahweh the Lord passed in front of Moses, calling out Yahweh,
- 2:29the Lord the god of compassion and mercy.
- 2:33I am slow to anger and filled with unfailing, love and
- 2:38faithfulness. I lavish unfailing love to a
- 2:42thousand Generations. I forgive iniquity, rebellion
- 2:47and sin, but I do not excuse the guilty.
- 2:51I lay the sins of the parents upon their children and
- 2:54grandchildren. The entire family is affected,
- 2:58even children in the third and fourth Generations, Moses
- 3:02immediately through Himself to the ground and worshiped and he
- 3:06said oh Lord if it is true that I have found favor with you then
- 3:10please travel with us. Yes.
- 3:13This is a stubborn and rebellious people but please
- 3:16forgive our iniquity and our sins claim us as your own
- 3:21special possession. The Lord replied.
- 3:25Listen, I am making a covenant with you in the presence of all
- 3:29your people. I will perform Miracles that
- 3:33have never been performed anywhere in all the Earth or in
- 3:36any nation and all the people around, you will see the power
- 3:40of the Lord. The awesome power.
- 3:43I will display for you, but listen carefully to everything I
- 3:46command you today. Then I will go ahead of you and
- 3:50drive out the amorites Canaanites, Hittites,
- 3:53perizzites, hivites and jebusites.
- 3:57Be very careful never to make a treaty with the people who live
- 4:00in the land where you were going.
- 4:02If you do, you will follow their evil ways and be trapped,
- 4:06instead, you must break down their Pagan altars smash.
- 4:10Their sacred pillars and cut down their Astra poles.
- 4:15You must worship no other gods for the Lord.
- 4:18Whose very name is jealous is a God, who is jealous about his
- 4:23relationship with you. You must not make a treaty of
- 4:27any kind with the people living in the land.
- 4:29They lust, after their gods, offering sacrifices to them,
- 4:34they will invite you to join them in their sacrificial meals,
- 4:37and you will go with them, then you will accept their daughters
- 4:40who sacrifice to other gods as wives for your sons and they
- 4:45will seduce your son's to commit adultery Against Me by
- 4:49worshipping other gods. You must not make any gods of
- 4:53molten metal for Elves. You must celebrate the Festival
- 4:57of unleavened bread. For seven days.
- 5:00The bread you eat must be made without yeast.
- 5:02Just as I commanded, you celebrate.
- 5:05This Festival annually at the appointed time and early spring
- 5:09in the month of abib for. That is the anniversary of your
- 5:13departure from Egypt. The firstborn of every animal
- 5:16belongs to me including the firstborn males from your herds
- 5:20of cattle and your flocks of sheep and goats a firstborn
- 5:24donkey Be bought back from the Lord by presenting a lamb or
- 5:27young goat in its place. But if you do not buy it back,
- 5:32you must break its neck. However, you must buy back every
- 5:36firstborn son. No one may appear before me
- 5:39without an offering. You have six days each week for
- 5:43your ordinary work, but on the seventh day, you must stop
- 5:47working even during the seasons of plowing and harvest.
- 5:51You must celebrate the Festival of harvest with the first crop
- 5:55of the wheat Harvest, and celebrate.
- 5:57The Festival of the final Harvest at the end of the
- 6:00harvest season, 3 times each year, every man in Israel must
- 6:05appear before The Sovereign, the Lord, the god of Israel, I will
- 6:10drive out the other nations ahead of you, and expand your
- 6:14territory. So no one will covet and Conquer
- 6:17your land while you appear before the Lord your God three
- 6:20times each. Year.
- 6:22You must not offer the blood of any sacrificial offerings
- 6:26together with any baked goods containing yeast and none of the
- 6:30meat of the Passover. Sacrifice may be kept until the
- 6:33next morning as you harvest. Your crops bring the very best
- 6:38of the first harvest to the house of the Lord.
- 6:41Your God, you must not cook a young goat in its mother's milk.
- 6:46Then the Lord said to Moses, write down all these
- 6:50instructions. For, they represent the terms of
- 6:54the Covenant. I am making with you and with
- 6:56Israel Moses remain there on the mountain with the Lord 40 days
- 7:01and 40 nights in all that time. He ate no bread and drank no
- 7:06water and the Lord wrote the terms of the Covenant The Ten
- 7:10Commandments on the stone tablets.
- 7:14When Moses came down Mount Sinai, carrying the two stone
- 7:17tablets inscribed with the terms of the Covenant.
- 7:20He wasn't aware that his face had become radiant because he
- 7:24had spoken to the Lord. So when Aaron and the people of
- 7:27Israel saw the radiance of Moses Faith, they were afraid to come
- 7:31near him but Moses called out to them and asked Aaron and all the
- 7:35leaders of the community to come over and he talked with them,
- 7:39then all the people of Israel approached him and Moses gave
- 7:43them all the Structions, the Lord had given him on Mount
- 7:46Sinai when Moses finished speaking with them, he covered
- 7:50his face with a veil, but whenever he went into the tent
- 7:54of meeting to speak with the Lord, he would remove the veil
- 7:57until he came out again, then he would give the people whatever
- 8:01instructions. The Lord had given him and the
- 8:04people of Israel would see the radiant glow of his face.
- 8:08So he would put the veil over his face until he returned to
- 8:12speak with the Lord. How father?
