Summary

In Exodus 33:10, we see Moses entering the tent of meeting, a place where he would commune with God and seek His guidance. This act symbolizes the intimate relationship Moses had with the Lord, demonstrating his desire for God's presence and direction in his life. The tent of meeting serves as a reminder for believers today to prioritize spending time in prayer and seeking God's will, just as Moses did. It also highlights the importance of seeking God's presence in our lives, as He is the source of wisdom, strength, and guidance.

John Gill Bible Commentary

And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door,.... They being every man at his tent door; and this must be a pleasing sight to them, and give them some hope that God would be merciful to them, forgive their sin, and not depart from them: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door; not Moses, nor the cloudy pillar, but the Lord in it; it was not a civil bow they made to Moses, and in respect to him, for he was gone into the tabernacle out of sight, but a religious adoration of the Lord in the pillar of cloud.
