Psalms 119:73

י (Yod)

119:73 Your hands made me and formed me.

Give me understanding so that I might learn your commands.

Isaiah 43:7

43:7 everyone who belongs to me,

whom I created for my glory,

whom I formed – yes, whom I made!


tn Heb “made me and established me.” The two verbs also appear together in Deut 32:6, where God, compared to a father, is said to have “made and established” Israel.

tn The cohortative verbal form with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates purpose/result after the preceding imperative.

tn Heb “everyone who is called by my name” (so NASB, NIV, NRSV).
