Context of Exodus 33:6
4The Israelites heard God's strong words. His message made them very upset. They stopped wearing their jewels, to show that they were sad. 5The Lord had said to Moses, ‘Tell the Israelites, “You are proud people who refuse to obey me. If I go with you, even for a moment, I might destroy you. Now remove your jewels. Then I will decide what I should do with you.” ’ So the Israelites no longer wore their jewels after they left Sinai mountain. 7As they travelled, Moses put up a special tent outside the camp. It was not near the other tents. He called it the Tent of Meeting. Anyone could go there to ask the Lord about something. They would go to the Tent of Meeting that was outside the camp. 8When Moses went out to the special tent, all the people would stand at the doors of their tents. They would watch Moses until he went into the special tent.
