Exodus 24 The Promise Sealed with Blood

Yahweh said to Moses, “You and Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and 70 of Israel’s leaders come up the mountain to me and worship at a distance. Moses may come near Yahweh, but the others may not. The people must not come along with Moses.”

Moses sacrificed and sprinkled blood on the people :

Moses went up with Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and 70 of Israel’s leaders. They saw the Elohim of Israel. Under his feet was something like a pavement made out of sapphire as clear and blue as the sky itself. Elohim didn’t harm these leaders of the Israelites. So they saw Elohim, and then they ate and drank.

Moses Goes up the Mountain to Receive God’s Words Written on Stone

Yahweh said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain. Stay there, and I will give you the stone tablets with the teachings and the commandments I have written for the people’s instruction.”

Moses set out with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up on the mountain of Elohim. He said to the leaders, “Wait here for us until we come back to you. Aaron and Hur are here with you. Take all your disagreements to them.”

So Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered it. The glory of Yahweh settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered it, and on the seventh day Yahweh called to Moses from inside the cloud. To the Israelites, the glory of Yahweh looked like a raging fire on top of the mountain. Moses entered the cloud as he went up the mountain. He stayed on the mountain 40 days and 40 nights.
