Today, Chad Fugere kicks off the next section of our study in EXODUS series with The Giving of the Law, as he focuses on Exodus chapter 19. In Exodus chapter 19, the Israelites arrive at Mount Sinai, and God speaks to Moses, instructing him to convey a message to the people. God reminds them of how He brought them out of Egypt on eagle's wings and calls them to be a treasured possession and a kingdom of priests. Moses conveys God's message to the people, and they respond with obedience, purifying themselves and consecrating themselves for the encounter with God. On the third day, thunder, lightning, a thick cloud, and the sound of a trumpet emerge on the mountain, signifying the presence of God. Moses leads the people to the foot of the mountain, and God descends upon it in fire, causing it to tremble. The chapter highlights the preparation and anticipation of the Israelites as they approach a sacred encounter with God at Mount Sinai.
