EXODUS 34:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the Lord: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.”
Then the Lord said: I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the Lord, will do for you. The covenant renewal is announced with a promise of unprecedented wonders witnessed by all the nations. The scope — all the world — returns to the global mission of Exodus 9:16: that God's name might be proclaimed in all the earth. The covenant renewal is not merely the restoration of a broken relationship but the recommissioning of a global witness. What Israel is restored to is the vocation of being the community through whom all nations encounter the living God.
