Commentary on Exodus 34:35
Moses was with God 'forty days and forty nights' without eating or drinking—sustained supernaturally during extended communion with God. He wrote the covenant words (the Decalogue) on tablets. When descending, Moses' face radiated (קָרַן, qaran—shone/had horns of light) from being in God's presence. The verb qaran creates a wordplay: Moses' face had 'horns' (rays) of light from beholding God's glory (2 Cor 3:7-18). This transformation prefigures Christ's transfiguration (Matt 17:2) and our transformation into His image.
