1 | Why did Joshua not leave the tabernacle? | Ex 33:11 | Ray | 131360 | ||
Hi Doc Trinsograce, It is difficult to know in Exodus 33:11 what "the tent" is. Is "the tent" the "Tabernacle of meeting" or is it Joshua's personal tent? I would think that it is speaking of the Tabernacle and thus the verse is saying that Joshua was always seeking the Lord, verse 7. Everyone who sought the Lord would go out to the tent of meeting which was outside the camp. The Lord used to speak to Moses face to face and Joshua was always seeking the Lord. That makes sense to me. God told Moses and He probably told Joshua, that (verse 14) "My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest." I think that Hebrews 4:7 speaks to us today. "Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts". From the heart, Ray |

2 | Why did Joshua not leave the tabernacle? | Ex 33:11 | DocTrinsograce | 131377 | ||
Hi, Ray... I think you are right. The cloud would not have come down on Joshua's tent, since this was a sign to all the people. Although Joshua is called a "young man" he was around 57 (middle age, for him!), but servants were often called that, no matter what their age was. Interesting to speculate about. But I do tend to be partial to your suggestion. | ||||||
