Exodus 34: The Lord, The Lord God Is...

The reading begins with the making of two more tablets to replace the ones Moses had broken. Then we have this:             “And the Lord descended in the cloud,
                                   and stood with him there,
                                  and proclaimed the name of the Lord.”

Everything we know about God is what He has revealed about Himself. That which He proclaimed here is among the most complete, useful, and moving revelations in the Bible. The terms that are used in verses 6, 7, and 14, as well as the narrative that follows, are truths that deserve our meditation time without ceasing.
