The verses around Exodus 33:14.
12And Moses said unto the Lord, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.
13Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.
14And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.
15And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.
16For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.
Verse explanation
“My presence” here—the KJV renders God’s answer as, “My presence shall go with thee”—is an expression representing God’s personal presence, not a physical face. It is God’s response to Moses’s request, assuring him that He Himself would accompany the people, not merely an angel sent in His place.
From the Exodus 33 study in Bible in Stories.
