God's Appointed Meeting Place

Commentators explain that the "tent of meeting" was the specific location God appointed to meet with His people. God would meet the entire nation ("you" plural) by speaking to their representative, such as Moses or the high priest ("thee" singular). This designated place was sanctified by God's own glory, establishing a formal and holy space for divine communication.
