Paul is a an amazingly nuanced figure in the New Testament, known for his missionary work, theological contributions, but also his practical leadership in the church. He is able to hold different perspectives in tension, such as his theological beliefs and pastoral counsel, which encourages Christians to pursue the same kinds of Christian values in our own lives of faith and discipleship.

Today we begin a new section of Exodus that details how the people begin to construct the tabernacle as God had commanded them. To start, Moses reminds the Israelites to work for six days and to observe a holy Sabbath on the seventh day, with a warning of harsh punishment for anyone who breaks the rule. This is reiterated throughout the book of Exodus, emphasizing the importance of the Sabbath in the lives of the Israelites.

Paul's theology created a bridge between Judaism and Christianity. He saw how the life and death of Jesus Christ transformed the world as he knew it by grace. He saw Jesus as the Messiah, not a military conqueror, and his writings have been studied and reinterpreted by generations of Christians, discovering greater depth and wisdom in his words.

In Exodus 33:7-11, Moses would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp to speak with God, and the people would watch and bow down in reverence. As a sign of God's presence, a pillar of cloud would descend and Moses would speak to God face to face as one speaks to a friend. This is a high praise for Moses' relationship with God, and serves as a reminder that Joshua is also present in the story, preparing for his future leadership of the people.

Continuing to reel from their disobedience, God calls the Israelites to continue their journey to the promised land, but warns them that if He goes with them, He will consume them due to their disobedience. The people mourn and take off their ornaments, a reminder of God's victory and promise, as a sign of repentance.

There is no way around it, today is a strange and difficult story. In Exodus 32:25-35, Moses confronts the people of Israel who have gone off the deep end in their idolatry, and calls for justice to be meted out in the form of a quasi-military action where people must attack their own kin. Moses commends the people for choosing to do the right, but hard thing in ordaining themselves for service at the cost of a life, and bringing a blessing on themselves in the process. This highlights the seriousness of the rupture of the people's relationship with God and also presents a sobering view of the rupture created when the people worshipped and idol instead of the God who called them out of Egypt.
