Pearl of Great Prince:
Since this first chapter is about Moses' experience, I'm going to assume that the God of the Old Testament that is made reference to, here, is none other than Jesus Christ, (Jehovah).
What is meant about "the glory of God" was upon Moses? Moses could not have borne the presence of God without some kind of transfiguration happening. Jesus in His glory would have been too "Holy"?
Referenced names of the Lord, here, are: Lord God Almighty, "Endless"/eternal. "Without beginning of days or end of years", endless/Eternal".
The word "mountain" in verse 1 of Chapter 1 is symbolic as well as perhaps literally: a mountain that is visited by the Savior would be "a Holy Place". When we visit the temple, do we think about the fact that Jesus, the Savior, "God", has walked there? The temple is a Holy Place. Our homes should be a place of refuge and "holiness", also.
Verse 2 of Chapter 1 PGP: Moses saw God "face to face". God has a body! God spoke to Moses! The "glory" of God: Moses was transfigured so that He could bear the presence of the Savior. [I'm starting to repeat myself].
God (v. 3) "spoke" to Moses, and identified Himself. "Behold" the Lord said: Look! I will show thee the workmanship of mine hands... The Savior Has a Body! He created the heavens and the Earth. His works are without end and His words will never cease.
That's all for now, four astonishing and revelatory verses, this morning of February 1, 2020.
