TRINITY : M. M. NINAN<br />

6. The Anger <strong>of</strong> the Lord<br />

said to Moses, "Come up to me on the mountain and stay here,<br />

and I will give you the tablets <strong>of</strong> stone, with the law and<br />

commands I have written for their instruction."<br />

7. Moses sees the Back <strong>of</strong> God.<br />

Ex 33:18-23 Then Moses said, "Now show me your glory." And<br />

the LORD said, "I will cause all my goodness to pass in front <strong>of</strong><br />

you, and I will proclaim my name, the LORD, in your presence. I<br />

will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have<br />

compassion on whom I will have compassion. But," he said, "you<br />

cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live." Then the<br />

LORD said, "There is a place near me where you may stand on<br />

a rock. When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the<br />

rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I<br />

will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must<br />

not be seen."<br />

8. Angel <strong>of</strong> God in the Pillar <strong>of</strong> Cloud<br />

Ex 14:18-19 The Egyptians will know that I am the LORD when I<br />

gain glory through Pharaoh, his chariots and his horsemen."<br />

Then the angel <strong>of</strong> God, who had been traveling in front <strong>of</strong> Israel's<br />

army, withdrew and went behind them. The pillar <strong>of</strong> cloud also<br />

moved from in front and stood behind them,<br />

The Angel <strong>of</strong> the Lord was in the pillar <strong>of</strong> cloud guiding the<br />

Israelites through the wilderness. This Angel says "I am the<br />

Lord".<br />
