Summary for Exod 33:8-11: 33:8-11 ^a get up and stand ... stand and bow down: The people were awed by the thought that Moses was talking directly to God, face to face (33:11 ^b).
33:11 ^c Just as Joshua had previously gained experience as a military leader (see 17:9-13 ^d), he was now gaining experience as a spiritual leader (see also 24:13 ^e). Here he may have remained behind to guard the tent, a function the Levites would later fulfill with the Tabernacle (1 Chr 26 ^f).
