The blessing of Moses at the removing and resting of the ark Whenever the ark set out This phrase marks a significant moment in the journey of the Israelites through the wilderness. The ark of the covenant was not merely a physical object but a profound symbol of God's presence among His people. In Hebrew, the word for "ark" is "aron," which signifies a chest or box, but in this context, it is the sacred chest containing the tablets of the covenant. The setting out of the ark indicates movement and guidance, emphasizing that the Israelites were not wandering aimlessly but were being led by God Himself. Historically, the ark was central to the camp, and its movement was a signal for the entire community to follow, underscoring the importance of divine leadership in their journey. Moses would say Rise up, O LORD may Your enemies be scattered may those who hate You flee before You Verse 35. - When the ark set forward. These words, taken in connection with the words "when it rested," in the following verse, confirm the belief that at this time (at any rate) the ark went before the host; for if it had remained in the midst, it would not have stirred until half the tribes had moved off, nor would it have halted until half the camp was pitched, whereas it is evident that its setting forward and standing still were the decisive moments of the day. They had, as it were, a sacramental character; they were visible signs, corresponding to invisible realities, as the movements of the hands on the dial correspond to the action of the machinery within. When the ark and the cloud set forward, it was the Almighty God going on before to victory; when the ark and the cloud rested, it was the all-merciful God returning to protect and cherish his own. This is clearly recognized in the morning and evening prayer of Moses. The typical and spiritual character of that setting forward and that resting could not well have been lost upon any religious mind - that God going before us is the certain and abiding pledge of final victory, that God returning to us is the only hope of present safety. Rise up, Lord, and let thine enemies be scattered. The sixty-eighth Psalm, which we have learnt to associate with the wonders of Pentecost and the triumphs of the Church on earth, seems to be an expansion of Moses' morning prayer. |
