E X O D U S CHAP. XXIV. Moses, as mediator between God and Israel, having received divers laws and ordinances from God privately in the three foregoing chapters, in this chapter, I. Comes down to the people, acquaints them with the laws he had received, and takes their consent to those laws ( Exodus 24:3 ), writes the laws, and reads them to the people, who repeat their consent ( Exodus 24:4-7 ), and then by sacrifice, and the sprinkling of blood, ratifies the covenant between them and God, Exodus 24:5 ; Exodus 24:6 ; Exodus 24:8 . II. He returns to God again, to receive further directions. When he was dismissed from his former attendance, he was ordered to attend again, Exodus 24:1 ; Exodus 24:2 . He did so with seventy of the elders, to whom God made a discovery of his glory, Exodus 24:9-11 . Moses is ordered up into the mount ( Exodus 24:12 ; Exodus 24:13 ); the rest are ordered down to the people, Exodus 24:14 .
