10606. 'And you shall stand with Me there on the top of the mountain' means coming from the inmost heaven, where Divine Love is. This is clear from the meaning of 'Mount Sinai' as heaven, from which revelation comes, dealt with in 8805, 8931, 9420; and from the meaning of 'the top' or the peak of it as the inmost heaven, dealt with in 9422, 9434. Where Divine Love is is meant because celestial love, which is love to the Lord that has been received from the Lord, reigns in the inmost heaven, while spiritual love, which is charity towards the neighbour, reigns in the lower heavens, see 10438. From this it is evident that 'be ready by the morning; and you shall come up to Mount Sinai, and you shall stand with Me there on the top of the mountain' means a new beginning in the revelation of Divine Truth coming from the inmost heaven, where Divine Love is, thus coming from Divine Love. From there also the Word, which is Divine revelation, comes down.

Exodus 33:17-23

Studie

      

17 Yahweh said to Moses, "I will do this thing also that you have spoken; for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name."

18 He said, "Please show me your glory."

19 He said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of Yahweh before you. I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy."

20 He said, "You cannot see my face, for man may not see me and live."

21 Yahweh also said, "Behold, there is a place by me, and you shall stand on the rock.

22 It will happen, while my glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with my hand until I have passed by;

23 then I will take away my hand, and you will see my back; but my face shall not be seen."
