Context of Exodus 24:13
11And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink. 12And Yhwh said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them. And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God. 14And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them. 15And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.

Commentaries on Exodus 24:13
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 13Moses rose up - In Exodus 24:16; it is said that the glory of the Lord abode on the mount, and the cloud covered it. The glory was probably above the cloud, and it was to the cloud that Moses and his servant Joshua ascended at this time, leaving Aaron and the elders below. After they had been in this region, viz., where the cloud encompassed the mountain, for six days, God appears to have called Moses up higher: compare verses Exodus 24:16; and Exodus…Read the comment
- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 12-18Verses 12-18 A cloud covered the mount six days; a token of God's special presence there. Moses was sure that he who called him up would protect him. Even those glorious attributes of God which are most terrible to the wicked, the saints with humble reverence rejoice in.

Now we see through a glass darkly, but when he shall appear, then face to face…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 1-18Israel agreed to the terms of the covenant (24:3). The covenant was then confirmed through several ceremonies: First, the covenant was written down and read aloud to the people (24:4, 7). Then blood was sprinkled as part of the ceremony (24:6).

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1313. Moses went up into the mount of God--He was called to receive the divine transcript. Joshua was taken a little higher, and it would be a great comfort for the leader to have his company during the six days he was in patient waiting for the call on the seventh or sabbath day.Read the comment
