CONTENTS
Moses receives a command from the Lord to deliver to the people a message that he will not go with them; but he will not wholly leave them without a witness of his mercy, for he will send an angel before them. This chapter relates to us this message, and the effect it wrought on the minds of the people. Preventing grace opens a renewal of communion between the Lord and the people; and Moses obtains a promise of God's presence with his people, and a special token of the Lord's favour to himself.
