1 Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆς, προπορεύου, ἀνάβηθι ἐντεῦθεν σὺ καὶ ὁ λαός σου, οὓς ἐξήγαγες ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου, εἰς τὴν γῆν, ἣν ὤμοσα τῷ Ἀβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰακὼβ, λέγων, Τῷ σπέρματι ὑμῶν δώσω αὐτήν. 2 Καὶ συναποστελῶ τὸν ἄγγελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου· καὶ ἐκβαλεῖ τὸν Ἀμοῤῥαῖον, καὶ Χετταῖον, καὶ Φερεζαῖον, καὶ Γεργεσαῖον, καὶ Εὐαῖον, καὶ Ἰεβουσαῖον, καὶ Χαναναῖον. 3 Καὶ εἰσάξω σε εἰς γῆν ῥέουσαν γάλα καὶ μέλι· οὐ γὰρ μὴ συναναβῶ μετὰ σου, διὰ τὸ λαὸν σκληροτράχηλόν σε εἶναι, ἵνα μὴ ἐξαναλώσω σεε ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ. 4 Καὶ ἀκούσας ὁ λαὸς τὸ ῥῆμα τὸ πονηρὸν τοῦτο, κατεπένθησεν ἐν πενθικοῖς. 5 Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, ὑμεῖς λαὸς σκληροτράχηλος· ὁρᾶτε, μὴ πληγὴν ἄλλην ἐπάξω ἐγὼ ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἐξαναλώσω ὑμᾶς· νῦν οὖν ἀφέλεσθε τὰς στολὰς τῶν δοξῶν ὑμῶν, καὶ τὸν κόσμον, καὶ δείξω σοι ἃ ποιήσω σοι. 6 Καὶ περιέλαντο οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ τὸν κόσμον αὐτῶν, καὶ τὴν περιστολὴν ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ Χωρήβ. 7 Καὶ λαβὼν Μωυσῆς τὴν σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ, ἔπηξεν ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς, μακρὰν ἀπὸ τῆς παρεμβολῆς· καὶ ἐκλήθν Σκηνὴ μαρτυρίου· καὶ ἐγένετο, πᾶς ὁ ζητῶν Κύριον ἐξεπορεύετο εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν τὴν ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς. 8 Ἡνίκα δʼ ἂν εἰσεπορεύετο Μωυσῆς εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς, εἱστήκει πᾶς ὁ λαὸς σκοπεύοντες ἕκαστος παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς αὐτοῦ· καὶ κατενοοῦσαν ἀπιόντος Μωυσῆ ἕως τοῦ εἰσελθεῖν αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν. 9 Ὡς δʼ ἂν εἰσῆλθε Μωσῆς εἰς τὴν σκηνήν, κατέβαινεν ὁ στύλος τῆς νεφέλης, καὶ ἵστατο ἐπὶ τὴν θύραν τῆς σκηνῆς, καὶ ἐλάλει Μωσῇ· 10 καὶ ἐλάλει Μωυσῇ. Καὶ ἑώρα πᾶς ὁ λαὸς τὸν στύλον τῆς νεφέλης ἑστῶτα ἐπὶ τῆς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς· καὶ στάντες πᾶς ὁ λαὸς, προσεκύνησαν ἕκαστος ἀπὸ τῆς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς αὐτοῦ. 11 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, ἐνώπιος ἐνωπίῳ, ὡς εἴτις λαλήσει πρὸς τὸν ἑαυτοῦ φίλον· καὶ ἀπελύετο εἰς τὴν παρεμβολήν· ὁ δὲ θεράπων Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυὴ νέος οὐκ ἐξεπορεύετο ἐκ τῆς σκηνῆς. 12 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς, πρὸς Κύριον, Ἰδοὺ σύ μοι λέγεις, ἀνάγαγε τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον, σὺ δὲ οὐκ ἐδήλωσάς μοι, ὃν συναποστελεῖς μετʼ ἐμοῦ· σὺ δέ μοι εἶπας, Οἶδά σε παρὰ πάντας, καὶ χάριν ἔχεις παρʼ ἐμοί. 13 Εἰ οὖν εὕρηκα χάριν ἐναντίον σου, ἐμφάνισόν μοι σεαυτόν· γνωστῶς ἴδω ἴδω σε, ὅπως ἂν ὦ εὑρηκὼς χάριν ἐναντίον σου,, καὶ ἵνα γνῶ, ὅτι λαός σου τὸ ἔθνος τὸ μέγα τοῦτο. 14 Καὶ λέγει, αὐτὸς προπορεύσομαί σου, καὶ καταπαύσω σε. 15 Καὶ λέγει πρὸς αὐτόν, εἰ μὴ αὐτὸς σὺ σνμπορεύῃ, μή με ἀναγάγῃς ἐντεῦθεν. 16 Καὶ πῶς γνωστὸν ἔσται ἀληθῶς, ὅτι εὕρηκα χάριν παρὰ σοί ἐγώ τε καὶ ὁ λαός σου, ἀλλʼ ἢ συμπορευομένου σου μεθʼ ἡμῶν; καὶ ἐνδοξασθήσομαι ἐγώ τε καὶ ὁ λαός σου παρὰ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ὅσα ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐστί. 17 Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, Καὶ τοῦτόν σοι τὸν λόγον, ὃν εἴρηκας ποιήσω· εὕρηκας, ποιήσω· εὕρηκας γὰρ χάριν ἐνώπιον ἐμοῦ, καὶ οἶδά σε παρὰ πάντας. 18 Καὶ λέγει, ἐμφάνισόν μοι σεαυτόν. 19 Καὶ εἶπεν, ἐγὼ παρελεύσομαι πρότερός σου τῇ δόξῃ μου, καὶ καλέσω τῷ ὀνόματί μου, Κύριος ἐναντίον σου· καὶ ἐλεήσω, ὃν ἂν ἐλεῶ, καὶ οἰκτειρήσω, ὃν ἂν οἰκτείρῶ. 20 Καὶ εἶπε, οὐ δυνήσῃ ἰδεῖν τὸ πρόσωπόν μου· οὐ γὰρ μὴ ἴδῃ ἄνθρωπος τὸ πρόσωπόν μου, καὶ ζήσεται. 21 Καὶ εἶπεν Κύριος, Ἰδοὺ τόπος παρʼ ἐμοί, στήσῃ ἐπὶ τῆς πέτρας· 22 Ἡνίκα δʼ ἂν παρέλθηνᾑ ᾑ δόξα μου, καί θήσω σε εἰς ὀπὴν τῆς πέτρας, καὶ σκεπάσω τῇ χειρί μου ἐπὶ σὲ, ἕως ἂν παρέλθω. 23 Καὶ ἀφελῶ τὴν χεῖρα, καὶ τότε ὄψει τὰ ὀπίσω μου· τὸ δὲ πρόσωπόν μου οὐκ ὀφθήσεταί σοι.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 33:20–22 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book IV, Chapter XVIII)

    But when My splendour shall pass by, then thou shalt see My back parts, but My face thou shalt not see: for no man sees My face, and shall live." Two facts are thus signified: that it is impossible for man to see God; and that, through the wisdom of God, man shall see Him in the last times, in …

  2. Quotes verse 33:13 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book X, Chapters 12–15)

    For, though Moses conversed with God, yet he said, "If I have found grace in Thy sight, show me Thyself, that I may see and know Thee." And as it was fit that the law, which was given, not to one man or a few enlightened men, but to the whole of a populous nation, should be accompanied by awe-inspiring …

  3. Quotes verse 33:20 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture IX)

    Now if the sight of the likeness of the glory brought fear and distress upon the prophets, any one who should attempt to behold God Himself would to a certainty lose his life, according to the saying, No man shall see My face and live.

  4. Quotes verse 33:21 Basil of Caesarea, On the Holy Spirit (Chapters XXV–XXVI)

    Accordingly we find the Psalmist, even in reference to God, saying "Be Thou to me a champion God and a strong place to save me" and concerning the Spirit "behold there is place by me, and stand upon a rock." Plainly meaning the place or contemplation in the Spirit wherein, after Moses had entered thither, he was able to see …

  5. Quotes verse 33:11 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter I — 15-18)

    For thou hast it plainly stated in the law: "And Moses spake with the Lord face to face, as a friend with his friend." Following the same scripture, thou findest Moses saying: "If I have found grace in Thy sight, show me Thyself plainly, that I may see Thee." And it is little that he said this: he received the …
