Exodus 19:7

The Pulpit Commentary on Exodus 19:7

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

And Moses came. Moses descended from the point of the mountain which he had reached, and summoned a meeting of the elders of the people. When they were come together, he reported to them totidem verbis the message which he had received from God.

He is said to have laid the words "before their faces"—a Hebraism, meaning simply "before them."
