In Scripture, mountains are often places where God reveals Himself and speaks with authority of divine revelation, covenant and His power. And now, like the greater Moses He is, going up a mountain to teach. But there’s a big difference. Moses went up to receive God’s word. Jesus went up to speak God’s word.

Every one of us should ask ourselves: Am I just in the crowd or am I a disciple? Do I listen to Him? Or do I follow Him? Because we can be around Jesus and not be surrendered to Jesus.
