Wanderings from Egypt to Sinai

33:1 ⁶ These are the journeys of the Israelites, who went out of the land of Egypt by their divisions under the authority ⁷  of Moses and Aaron.

[5:4]  ¹ tn The perfect tense is here given a past perfect nuance to stress that the word of the Lord preceded the obedience.

[12:15]  ² tn The clause has the Niphal infinitive construct after a temporal preposition.

[14:44]  ³ tn N. H. Snaith compares Arabic ’afala (“to swell”) and gafala (“reckless, headstrong”; Leviticus and Numbers [NCB], 248). The wordעֹפֶל (’ofel) means a “rounded hill” or a “tumor.” The idea behind the verb may be that of “swelling,” and so “act presumptuously.”

[14:44]  ⁴ tn The disjunctive vav (ו) here introduces a circumstantial clause; the most appropriate one here would be the concessive “although.”

[19:3]  ⁵ tc The clause is a little ambiguous. It reads “and he shall slaughter it before him.” It sounds as if someone else will kill the heifer in the priest’s presence. Since no one is named as the subject, it may be translated as a passive. Some commentators simply interpret that Eleazar was to kill the animal personally, but that is a little forced for “before him.” The Greek text gives a third person plural sense to the verb; the Vulgate follows that reading.

[33:1]  ⁶ sn This material can be arranged into four sections: from Egypt to Sinai (vv. 1-15), the wilderness wanderings (vv. 16-36), from Kadesh to Moab (vv. 37-49), and final orders for Canaan (vv. 50-56).

[33:1]  ⁷ tn Heb “hand.”
