Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
The Ark of the Covenant, The Tabernacle, and The Temple
Exodus 33
33 Then the Lord said to Moses, Leave this place, you and the people you brought up out of Egypt, and go up to the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, saying, I will give it to your descendants. 2 I will send an angel before you and drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. 3 Go up to the land flowing with milk and honey. But I will not go with you, because you are a stiff-necked people and I might destroy you on the way.
4 When the people heard these distressing words, they began to mourn and no one put on any ornaments. 5 For the Lord had said to Moses, Tell the Israelites, You are a stiff-necked people. If I were to go with you even for a moment, I might destroy you. Now take off your ornaments and I will decide what to do with you. 6 So the Israelites stripped off their ornaments at Mount Horeb.
The Tent of Meeting
7 Now Moses used to take a tent and pitch it outside the camp some distance away, calling it the tent of meeting. Anyone inquiring of the Lord would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp. 8 And whenever Moses went out to the tent, all the people rose and stood at the entrances to their tents, watching Moses until he entered the tent. 9 As Moses went into the tent, the pillar of cloud would come down and stay at the entrance, while the Lord spoke with Moses. 10 Whenever the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance to the tent, they all stood and worshiped, each at the entrance to their tent. 11 The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent.
Moses and the Glory of the Lord
12 Moses said to the Lord, You have been telling me, Lead these people, but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, I know you by name and you have found favor with me. 13 If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.
14 The Lord replied, My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.
15 Then Moses said to him, If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. 16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?
17 And the Lord said to Moses, I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.
18 Then Moses said, Now show me your glory.
19 And the Lord said, I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. 20 But, he said, you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.
21 Then the Lord said, There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock. 22 When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by. 23 Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
This "discussion" between Moses and God takes place right after the Golden Calf Incident" on the journey out of Egypt. Cecil B. DeMille did a good job portraying this ugly scene, but was somewhat restrained by his own sense of decency and the cinematic standards of the day. In later versions, this scene gave the whole story of the Exodus an "R" Rating. After the exhilaration of the Mountaintop, Moses comes down to see his People engaging in some seriously degrading, barbarous, and idolatrous acts. It is then that Moses smashes the tablets, written by the Finger of God, and slays the evildoers.
What happens next is not in the Movie. From this conversation, it would seem that God has finally "had it" with the Children of Israel. He is ready to drop them for good, and not bring them into the Promised Land. Once again, Moses pleads for his wayward people, and makes an outrageous request: "Let me behold Your Glory".
There is no way a man can look upon God and live, but The LORD accommodates Moses's bold request in a unique manner. So many things have resulted from this Passage, including Michelangelo's great statue of Moses (The "rays" coming out of his head were mistranslated as "horns"), several Christian Hymns (He Hideth My Soul, Rock of Ages, etc) and LOTS of Artwork.
Perhaps Cecil B. DeMille was wise NOT to include this scene, as NOTHING can come even close.
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
God Bless America!

You can take the children of Israel out of the Egypt, but you can’t take Egypt out of the children of Israel. At you need to wait 40 years.
