Keluaran 23:15
Konteks23:15 You are to observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread; seven days 1 you must eat bread made without yeast, as I commanded you, at the appointed time of the month of Abib, for at that time 2 you came out of Egypt. No one may appear before 3 me empty-handed.
Keluaran 34:20
Konteks34:20 Now the firstling 4 of a donkey you may redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, then break its neck. 5 You must redeem all the firstborn of your sons.
“No one will appear before me empty-handed. 6
[23:15] 1 tn This is an adverbial accusative of time.
[23:15] 3 tn The verb is a Niphal imperfect; the nuance of permission works well here – no one is permitted to appear before God empty (Heb “and they will not appear before me empty”).
[34:20] 4 tn Heb “and the one that opens [the womb of] the donkey.”
[34:20] 5 sn See G. Brin, “The Firstling of Unclean Animals,” JQR 68 (1971): 1-15.
