Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - The Lord win come down. Jehovah is regarded as dwelling in the heaven above, not exclusively (Psalm 139:7-10), but especially and therefore, when he appears on earth, he "comes down" (Genesis 11:5-7; Genesis 18:21; Exodus 3:8; etc.). In the sight of all the people. That a visible manifestation of the Divine presence is intended appears, unmistakably, from verses 16 and 18.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) Against the third day.--There is no special "significance" in this mention of "the third day." The important point is, that the purification was to continue through two entire days--one day not being sufficient. This taught the lesson that man's defilement is, in the sight of God, very great.The Lord will come down in the sight of all the people.--See the comment on Exodus 19:9.
