Exodus 33:18 And he said, I beseech you, show me your glory. I. THAT THE DESIRES OF RELIGION INTENSIFY WITH ITS GROWTH. 1. The more grace Moses found, the more he sought. 2. To surfeit, not to satisfy, is the nature of earthly good. 3. But here is satisfaction without surfeit. II. THAT CHRIST IS THE MEDIUM OF DIVINE MANIFESTATION. 1. The rock was an emblem of Christ. 2. Here God revealed Himself to Moses. 3. Man in Christ sees God and lives. III. THAT DIVINE VISIONS ARE ATTENDED WITH GRACIOUS EFFECTS. 1. Life is imparted by them. 2. Devotion is kindled by them. 3. Spiritual vigour is imparted by them. 4. Moral influence is gained in them. (J. A. Macdonald, M. A.) Parallel Verses KJV: And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory. |
