- (33:12-23) Moses intercedes on behalf of the people after the sin of the Golden Calf. He asks God for reassurance, which God gives him. Moses asks, “Show me, please, Your glory,” but God refuses, “For no man may see me and live,” but promises to reveal His “back” to Moses.
- (34:1-9) God commands Moses to make the second set of tablets. He then ascends Mt. Sinai again, and God reveals His nature in the form of the “13 attributes.”
- (34:10-26) God renews His covenant with the people of Israel, with some elements of how to preserve the covenant, including the absolute prohibition of idolatry.
