Ok, dis gon b tricky.

GC, would you be so kind and explain how 'god talked with Moses FACE TO FACE' doesn't mean god talked with Moses face to face?

I mean, I'm not the smartest panda in the room, but it seems a teeensy weensy little itty bitty tad contradictory, if you think about it

Verbally, God seldom did this, verbally as friends use to do, now they text not, see each other for months.

GC

But it says FACE TO FACE.

And you just said he could see god.

Explain how a rock could protect Moses from god's glorious presence? Was the rock stronger than god?

Read the passage stupid an see if you can possibly figure it out, I'm betting you can't though.

I have read the passage and it contradicts itself. First god speaks to Moses face to face in his tent and then he tells Moses to stand in the cleft of some rock with god protecting powers so that Moses and see his back. It makes absolutely no sense

Quote: Now Moses used to take a tent and pitch it outside the camp some distance away, calling it the “tent of meeting.” Anyone inquiring of the Lord would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp. 8 And whenever Moses went out to the tent, all the people rose and stood at the entrances to their tents, watching Moses until he entered the tent. 9 As Moses went into the tent, the pillar of cloud would come down and stay at the entrance, while the Lord spoke with Moses. 10 Whenever the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance to the tent, they all stood and worshiped, each at the entrance to their tent. 11 The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent.

Moses and the Glory of the Lord
12 Moses said to the Lord, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, ‘I know you by name and you have found favor with me.’ 13 If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.”

14 The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

15 Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. 16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”

17 And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.”

18 Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”

19 And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. 20 But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.”

21 Then the Lord said, “There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock. 22 When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by. 23 Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen.”

Moses asked for the privilege to see God, God granted what He could without Moses losing his life.

If god is omnipresent why does Moses have to be at a specific place?

What does 'protect Moses from his glorious presence' mean?

Please excuse my ignorance.

That's why I love Charlie Hebdo as opposed to some people writing "Je suis Charlie" to justify their bigotry. They have absolutely no respect and attack left, right and center.
