Exodus 33:8

The Pulpit Commentary on Exodus 33:8

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

When Moses went out …. all the people rose up. Probably Moses "went out" at a set time, or at set times, each day; and the people watched for his going, and "rose up," as a mark of respect and reverence.

They felt that he went to the tent mainly to pray for them.
