  1. Bnei Yisrael asked Moshe to speak instead of Hashem:
  • Hashem spoke the above words before you all, within a fog, and in a loud endless voice. He wrote them on two stone tablets and gave them to me. When you heard the voice of Hashem, all your tribal leaders and elders approached me saying that you could no longer handle hearing the voice of Hashem, lest you die, as there is no one who can hear Hashem and stay alive. You asked me to be the intermediary to tell you of His commands. Hashem agreed to your request, saying that if only they would learn from here to fear Me all their days, so I can benefit their children forever. “Go tell them to return to their tents, but you [Moshe] shall remain with Me and I will teach you all the laws and commands that they shall perform in the promised land.”
