3
Go to a land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up among you, for you are a stiff-necked people, lest I consume you on the way.”

ExplanationCommentary
Verse 3. I will not go: “in majesty” (Chal.) and “brightness,” Arab. The angel shall go in his own name, and shall not perform such great miracles. My tabernacle shall be removed to a respectful distance, lest, not being able to endure the barefaced impiety of the people, I slay you in my fury. God addresses Moses, as the representative of the nation, ( Menochius.) and adopts the language of men, appearing as a king, who cannot bear to be insulted to his face. Bible.
