In this chapter we have a further account of the mediation of Moses between God and Israel, for the making up of the breach that sin had made between them.
I. He brings a very humbling message from God to them (v. 1-3, 5), which has a good effect upon them, and helps to prepare them for mercy (v. 4, 6).
II. He settles a correspondence between God and them, and both God and the people signify their approbation of that correspondence, God by descending in a cloudy pillar, and the people by worshipping at the tent doors (v. 7-11).
III. He is earnest with God in prayer, and prevails,
1. For a promise of his presence with the people (v. 12-17).
2. For a sight of his glory for himself (v. 18, etc.).
