Exodus 3:1-6 Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert… 1. Accesses by honest hearts to the place of God's appearing may be rash. 2. Such hasty and unadvised accesses, God forbids unto His servants. 3. Due preparations must be made by creatures in their accesses to God. 4. Places have been and may be relatively holy, for God's appearance in them. 5. So far to use them holily as in reference to God's presence is the duty of all (ver. 5). (G. Hughes, B. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. |
