Commentary on Exodus 33:5
Ye are a stiffnecked people—God repeats the diagnosis, emphasizing Israel's chronic rebellion. The warning 'I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee' shows that God's presence among sinful people is like fire among dry stubble. The command to remove ornaments becomes a test: will they humble themselves? This stripping prefigures the deeper work needed—circumcision of heart (Deuteronomy 10:16), which only God can perform (Deuteronomy 30:6).
