Exodus 33:19-23

And He said, “I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the Lord before you; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compassion to whom I will show compassion.”

He further said, “You cannot see My face, for mankind shall not see Me and live!”

Then the Lord said, “Behold, there is a place by Me, and you shall stand there on the rock;

and it will come about, while My glory is passing by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by.

Then I will take My hand away and you shall see My back, but My face shall not be seen.”
