Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Exodus 24:18

_ _ Moses went into the midst of the cloud — the visible token of God’s presence. Divine grace animated and supported him to enter with holy boldness.

_ _ Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights — The six days spent in waiting are not included. During that protracted period he was miraculously supported (Deuteronomy 9:9), on a peak scarcely thirty paces in compass.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Exodus 24:12-18.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Exodus 24:18

Moses went into the midst of the cloud — It was an extraordinary presence of mind, which the grace of God furnished him with, else he durst not have ventured into the cloud, especially when it broke out in devouring fire. And Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights — It should seem the six days, were not part of the forty; for during those six days, Joshua was with Moses, who did eat of the manna, and drink of the brook mentioned, Deuteronomy 9:21, and while they were together, it is probable Moses did eat and drink with him; but when Moses was called into the midst of the cloud, he left Joshua without, who continued to eat and drink daily while he waited for Moses's return, but from thenceforward Moses fasted.
