Commentary on Exodus 20:18

Theological / Devotional

They removed. More accurately, “they trembled.” The terrors of Sinai — the thunderings, the lightnings, the noise of the trumpet, the smoking mountain, the cloud and the voice speaking out of it — inspired the people with holy fear (Deut. 5:23-31).
