Exodus 34:2

34:2 Be prepared 1  in the morning, and go up in the morning to Mount Sinai, and station yourself 2  for me there on the top of the mountain.

1 tn The form is a Niphal participle that means “be prepared, be ready.” This probably means that Moses was to do in preparation what the congregation had to do back in Exod 19:11-15.

2 sn The same word is used in Exod 33:21. It is as if Moses was to be at his post when Yahweh wanted to communicate to him.
