Exodus 24 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Moses' covenant

The people of Israel promise to obey the covenant Yahweh made with Moses. Their continued blessings were contingent upon their obedience to this covenant. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/promise and rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/covenant)

God's holiness

Because Yahweh is perfectly holy, he can only be approached in a certain way. Because of this, only Moses was allowed near Yahweh. This is also why Yahweh is described as a "devouring fire." (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/holy)
