One of them died and was buried by God. One of them was awake on the mountain and watched. Until this session they had not spoken about it to each other.
You were in Midian for forty years. What did you do all day?
I learned the ground. I know where the water is between Egypt and Canaan because I walked sheep over it for forty years. Every wadi, every well, every place a flock can rest in shade. I did not know I was learning a road. I thought I was keeping sheep.
By the end of it I was not the man who left Egypt. That man was fast and certain. The wilderness took all of that out and did not replace it with anything. It just left what was underneath, which was not much.
That is where God found me. At not much.
He looks at Moses across the table.
I did not know your face that day. I had never seen you. But I knew it was you, the way you sometimes know things on that mountain that you could not know anywhere else.

He was with God the way your breath is with you. Not separate. Not the same as your body. But never apart from you, not for a single moment.
It will be their paper, not mine. I will print anything they say.
