At nangyari nang gabi ring iyon, sinabi sa kanya ng Walang-Hanggan: “Bumangon ka, lumusong ka laban sa kampo, sapagkat ibinigay Ko na ito sa iyong kamay.”

Shofars and torches to invoke the merit of the giving of the Torah.10 At Mount Sinai, when the shofar sounded, and fire descended on the mountain. (Shemos, 19:16–19). According to the plain explanation: this took place at night, as it is written,11V. 9. and it was dark. They therefore carried torches to provide them with light. They placed them in pitchers so that the torches would remain undetected.
