Exodus 34:23-35 ▼

23 Three times in the year all your males shall appear before the face of the Lord YHWH, God of Israel.

24 For I will cast out the nations before your face and enlarge your border, and no man will covet your land when you go up to appear before the face of YHWH your God three times in the year.

25 You shall not slaughter with leaven the blood of My sacrifice, and the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover shall not remain until the morning.

26 The first of the firstfruits of your ground you shall bring to the house of YHWH your God. You shall not boil a young goat in the milk of its mother.”

27 And YHWH said to Moses, “Write for yourself these words, for upon the mouth of these words I have cut a covenant with you and with Israel.”

28 And he was there with YHWH forty days and forty nights; he has not eaten bread and has not drunk water. And He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Words.

29 And it came to pass when Moses came down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the Testimony were in the hand of Moses when he came down from the mountain), and Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone in his speaking with Him.

30 And Aaron saw—and all the sons of Israel—Moses, and behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near to him.

31 And Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers in the congregation returned to him, and Moses spoke to them.

32 And afterward all the sons of Israel came near, and he commanded them all that YHWH had spoken with him on Mount Sinai.

33 And Moses finished from speaking with them, and he put on his face a veil.

34 And whenever Moses went in before the face of YHWH to speak with Him, he would take off the veil until his coming out. And he would come out and speak to the sons of Israel whatever he had been commanded,

35 and the sons of Israel would see the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone, and Moses would return the veil on his face until he went in to speak with Him.
