The Shining Face of Moses

Exodus 34:29-35

34
Chapter 34
29 And as Moses descended from Mount Sinai, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand as he descended from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face had become horned while he spoke with him. 30 Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, and behold, the skin of his face was horned. And they were afraid to approach him. 31 Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the princes of the congregation came to him. And Moses spoke to them. 32 And afterward all the sons of Israel approached, and he commanded them all that the LORD had spoken to him on Mount Sinai. 33 When Moses finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34 But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he would take the veil off until he came out. And when he came out, he spoke to the sons of Israel what he had been commanded. 35 And the sons of Israel saw the face of Moses, for the skin of Moses' face had become horned, and Moses put the veil back on his face until they came to speak with him.
