Notes
the mountain of the LORD: Here, this refers to Mount Sinai. In other places, it means Mount Moriah or Zion in Jerusalem (Genesis 22:14; Psalm 24:3; Isaiah 2:3; Zechariah 8:3).
Leaving Sinai was a key moment in Israel's history. The Israelites now had the law and God would test them on how they obeyed it. The departure from Sinai marked the start of the march toward Canaan, although it became a long journey (compare Deuteronomy 1:6–8, 19). This passage summarizes the daily routines during the journey.
