Contextual Overview

30 when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina, an angel of the Lord in a flaming bush. 31 Moses was astonished at this vision: and as he drew near to observe it, he heard the voice of the Lord, which said to him, 32 "I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." and Moses trembled so, he durst not observe any longer. 33 then said the Lord to him, "put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground. 34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt; I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. come immediately, and I will send you into Egypt." 35 this Moses whom they refused, saying, who made thee a ruler and a judge? the very same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hands of the angel that appeared to him in the bush. 36 he it was, who delivered them by doing prodigies and miracles in the land of Egypt, in the red sea, and in the wilderness for forty years. 37 this is that Moses who said to the children of Israel , "a prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear." 38 'twas he that was in the assembly with our fathers in the wilderness, and with the angel that spoke to him on mount Sina: and delivered the oracles to him by word of mouth for our use. 39 him our fathers would not obey, but rejected him, and they return'd to their Egyptian disposition.
