The Lord directed Moses, “Go down and warn the people not to break through to see the Lord; otherwise many of them will die.

God struck down the men of Beth-shemesh because they looked inside the ark of the Lord. He struck down 70 men out of 50,000 men. The people mourned because the Lord struck them with a great slaughter.

“Do not come closer,” He said. “Remove the sandals from your feet, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

So Moses thought: I must go over and look at this remarkable sight. Why isn’t the bush burning up?

Put boundaries for the people all around the mountain and say: Be careful that you don’t go up on the mountain or touch its base. Anyone who touches the mountain will be put to death.

But He answered, “You cannot see My face, for no one can see Me and live.”

Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Better to draw near in obedience than to offer the sacrifice as fools do, for they ignorantly do wrong.

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us hold on to grace. By it, we may serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,

No one may go up with you; in fact, no one must be seen anywhere on the mountain. Even the flocks and herds are not to graze in front of that mountain.”
