Contextual Overview

³⁰ And when he had completed forty years, there appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Si''nai, an angel of the LORD in a flame of fire in a bush. ³¹ When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to look at it, the LORD spoke to him in a loud voice, ³² Saying, I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob. And Moses trembled and dared not look at the sight. ³³ Then the LORD said to him, Take off your shoes from your feet, for the ground on which you stand is holy. ³⁴ Already I have seen the affliction of my people in Egypt, I have heard their groans, and I have come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you into Egypt. ³⁵ This Moses whom they had denied, saying, Who appointed you leader and judge over us?, this very one God sent to be a leader and deliverer to them by the hand of the angel which had appeared to him in the bush. ³⁶ It was he who brought them out after he had performed miracles, wonders, and signs in the land of Egypt and in the Red sea and in the wilderness for forty years. ³⁷ This is the Moses who said to the children of Israel, The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet, like me, from among your brethren; give heed to him. ³⁸ It was he who was in the congregation in the wilderness with the angel who spoke to him and to our fathers in Mount Sinai: He is the one who received the living words to give to us. ³⁹ Yet our fathers would not listen to him, but they left him, and in their hearts turned towards Egypt.
