SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:1
¶ Y dijo a Moisés: Sube al SEÑOR, tú, y Aarón, Nadab, y Abiú, y setenta de los ancianos de Israel; y os inclinaréis desde lejos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 24:1
Verse 1. Come up unto the Lord] Moses and Aaron were already on the mount, or at least some way up, (chap. xix. 24,) where they had heard the voice of the Lord distinctly speaking to them: and the people also saw and heard, but in a less distinct manner, probably like the hoarse grumbling sound of distant thunder; see chap. xx. 18. Calmet, who complains of the apparent want of order in the facts laid down here, thinks the whole should be understood thus:-"After God had laid before Moses and Aaron all the laws mentioned from the beginning of the 20th chapter to the end of the 23d, before they went down from the mount to lay them before the people, he told them that, when they had proposed the conditions of the covenant to the Israelites, and they had ratified them, they were to come up again unto the mountain accompanied with Nadab and Abihu the sons of Aaron, and seventy of the principal elders of Israel. Moses accordingly went down, spoke to the people, ratified the covenant, and then, according to the command of God mentioned here, he and the others reascended the mountain. Tout cela est racontÇ ici avec assez peu d'ordre."
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - A solemn covenant was made between God and Israel. Very solemn it was typifying the covenant of grace between God and believers, throug Christ. As soon as God separated to himself a peculiar people, he governed them by a written word, as he has done ever since. God' covenants and commands are so just in themselves, and so much for ou good, that the more we think of them, and the more plainly and full they are set before us, the more reason we may see to comply with them The blood of the sacrifice was sprinkled on the altar, on the book, an on the people. Neither their persons, their moral obedience, no religious services, would meet with acceptance from a holy God, excep through the shedding and sprinkling' of blood. Also the blessing granted unto them were all of mercy; and the Lord would deal with the in kindness. Thus the sinner, by faith in the blood of Christ, render willing and acceptable obedience. (Ex 24:9-11)
