If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and the fashion of it, and the exits of it, and the entrances of it, and all the forms of it, and all the ordinances of it, and all the forms of it, and all the laws of it; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all the ordinances of it, and do them.

Charles Ellicott notes that God's presence is contingent on their repentance, and Matthew Henry adds that this shame prepares us for 'fuller discoveries of the mysteries of redeeming love.' True repentance opens our hearts to deeper spiritual understanding.
