Keluaran 4:7

4:7 He said, “Put your hand back into your robe.” So he put his hand back into his robe, and when he brought it out from his robe – there it was, ¹  restored ²  like the rest of his skin! ³ 

Keluaran 7:4

7:4 Pharaoh will not listen to you. ⁴  I will reach into ⁵  Egypt and bring out my regiments, ⁶  my people the Israelites, from the land of Egypt with great acts of judgment.

Keluaran 19:9

19:9 The Lord said to Moses, “I am going to come ⁷  to you in a dense cloud, ⁸  so that the people may hear when I speak with you and so that they will always believe in you.” ⁹  And Moses told the words of the people to the Lord.

Keluaran 38:24

38:24 All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary ¹⁰  (namely, ¹¹  the gold of the wave offering) was twenty-nine talents and 730 shekels, ¹²  according to the sanctuary shekel.

[4:7]  ¹ tn The particle הִנֵּה (hinneh) points out the startling or amazing sight as if the reader were catching first glimpse of it with Moses.

[4:7]  ² tn Heb “it returned.”

[4:7]  ³ tn Heb “like his flesh.”

[7:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “and Pharaoh will not listen.”

[7:4]  ⁵ tn Heb “put my hand into.” The expression is a strong anthropomorphism to depict God’s severest judgment on Egypt. The point is that neither the speeches of Moses and Aaron nor the signs that God would do will be effective. Consequently, God would deliver the blow that would destroy.

[7:4]  ⁶ tn See the note on this term in 6:26.

[19:9]  ⁷ tn The construction uses the deictic particle and the participle to express the imminent future, what God was about to do. Here is the first announcement of the theophany.

[19:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “the thickness of the cloud”; KJV, ASV, NASB, NCV, TEV, CEV, NLT “in a thick cloud.”

[19:9]  ⁹ tn Since “and also in you” begins the clause, the emphasis must be that the people would also trust Moses. See Exod 4:1-9, 31; 14:31.

[38:24]  ¹⁰ tn These words form the casus pendens, or independent nominative absolute, followed by the apodosis beginning with the vav (ו; see U. Cassuto, Exodus, 469).

[38:24]  ¹¹ tn Heb “and it was.”

[38:24]  ¹² sn There were 3000 shekels in a talent, and so the total weight here in shekels would be 87,730 shekels of gold. If the sanctuary shekel was 224 grs., then this was about 40,940 oz. troy. This is estimated to be a little over a ton (cf. NCV “over 2,000 pounds”; TEV “a thousand kilogrammes”; CEV “two thousand two hundred nine pounds”; NLT “about 2,200 pounds”), although other widely diverging estimates are also given.
