Bother Evans I have read this scripture and your references to it...But in
light of your comment Do you have any scripyural proof that Moses did not
"see" anything with his physical eyes and that all he got was revelation
knowledge?
I can understand that God chose Moses to write this all down...He had to
pick someone didnt he if he was going to leave a record of it for mankind
But God picked Moses to lead his people out of bondage a long long time
before this particular mountain top experience I am referring too.
And since God appeared in or as a burning bush to Moses in former times I
would think it entirely reasonable that he might have shared some visual
expression of his glory with Moses...Though my own imagination would tend
to invision something more along the lines of seeing the tail of a comet
speeding by you rather than a form resembling mankind or angelic host in
this particular instance....(please do not get my intent or words confused)
I simply am saying I think it is entirely likely and feasible that Moses
did indeed actually see with his natural eyes some awesome display of the
glory of God and I see nothing in the scripture that would prove that he
didnt see anything.
In addition to and not taking away from the encounter any wisdom or
knowledge that God may have given him (Moses).
Thank You, and may God Bless.
