AMPLIFIED 2015 | Exodus 33:11 And so the LORD used to speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend. When Moses returned to the camp, his attendant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, would not depart from the tent. |
Subject: Why did Joshua not leave the tabernacle? |
Bible Note: 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. |
