3. After meeting Yahweh his face shown so brightly people were afraid, could not look at him

He was bringing down the tablets with the 10 commandments and had to share his experience with God. Covering his face enabled him to share his experience with his people.

That is apparently what is related in the referenced OT passage

6. Wait a minute...

You mean God gave Moses a virus called 10 commandments and Moses covered his face while he gave it to his peeps?

I don't think I read that right.
