Key Passages
Mount Sinai was completely enveloped in smoke, because the LORD had descended on it in fire. And the smoke rose like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked violently.
He looks on the earth,and it trembles;He touches the mountains,and they smolder.
Part Your heavens, O LORD, and come down;touch the mountains, that they may smoke.
Why have You rejected us forever, O God?Why does Your anger smolderagainst the sheep of Your pasture?
