Theological / Devotional

He heard the voice. Jehovah spoke with Moses audibly, even as He had with Adam and Eve in the garden (Gen. 3:9) and with Abram at the door of his tent (Gen. 17:1). Only Moses was allowed in the tabernacle at this time to hear God’s message. Apparently even Aaron was excluded (see Ex. 25:22; 40:33, 34; Lev. 16:2).
