Moses comes down off the mountain with the two tablets of the covenant or the Ten Commandments as we know them. He has been in the presence of God and as such, his face shines. God changes us when we realize that we have been in his presence. Like Peter, sometimes we feel inept and ask God to get away from our sinful selves.
