A Historical Review

The Lord came from Sinai

and revealed himself ¹⁴  to Israel ¹⁵  from Seir.

He appeared in splendor ¹⁶  from Mount Paran,

and came forth with ten thousand holy ones. ¹⁷ 

With his right hand he gave a fiery law ¹⁸  to them.

[2:25]  ¹ tn Heb “under heaven” (so NIV, NRSV).

[2:25]  ² tn Heb “from before you.”

[3:12]  ³ tn The words “the territory extending” are not in the Hebrew text; they are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[3:12]  ⁴ sn Reubenites and Gadites. By the time of Moses’ address the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh had already been granted permission to settle in the Transjordan, provided they helped the other tribes subdue the occupants of Canaan (cf. Num 32:28-42).

[11:30]  ⁵ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[11:30]  ⁶ sn Gilgal. From a Hebrew verb root גָלַל (galal, “to roll”) this place name means “circle” or “rolling,” a name given because God had “rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you” (Josh 5:9). It is perhaps to be identified with Khirbet el-Metjir, 1.2 mi (2 km) northeast of OT Jericho.

[11:30]  ⁷ tc The MT plural “oaks” (אֵלוֹנֵי, ’eloney) should probably be altered (with many Greek texts) to the singular “oak” (אֵלוֹן, ’elon; cf. NRSV) in line with the only other occurrence of the phrase (Gen 12:6). The Syriac, Tg. Ps.-J. read mmrá, confusing this place with the “oaks of Mamre” near Hebron (Gen 13:18). Smr also appears to confuse “Moreh” with “Mamre” (reading mwr’, a combined form), adding the clarification mwl shkm (“near Shechem”) apparently to distinguish it from Mamre near Hebron.

[15:10]  ⁷ tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “by all means.”

[15:10]  ⁸ tc Heb “your heart must not be grieved in giving to him.” The LXX and Orig add, “you shall surely lend to him sufficient for his need,” a suggestion based on the same basic idea in v. 8. Such slavish adherence to stock phrases is without warrant in most cases, and certainly here.

[28:55]  ⁹ tn Heb “besiege,” redundant with the noun “siege.”

[28:57]  ¹¹ tn Heb includes “that which comes out from between her feet.”

[28:57]  ¹² tn Heb “her sons that she will bear.”

[28:57]  ¹³ tn Heb includes “in her need for everything.”

[33:2]  ¹³ tn Or “rose like the sun” (NCV, TEV).

[33:2]  ¹⁴ tc Heb “to him.” The LXX reads “to us” (לָנוּ [lanu] for לָמוֹ [lamo]), the reading of the MT is acceptable since it no doubt has in mind Israel as a collective singular.

[33:2]  ¹⁵ tn Or “he shone forth” (NAB, NIV, NRSV, NLT).

[33:2]  ¹⁶ tc With slight alteration (מִמְרִבַת קָדֵשׁ [mimrivat qadesh] for the MT’s מֵרִבְבֹת קֹדֶשׁ [merivvot qodesh]) the translation would be “from Meribah Kadesh” (cf. NAB, NLT; see Deut 32:51). However, the language of holy war in the immediate context favors the reading of the MT, which views the Lord as accompanied by angelic hosts.

[33:2]  ¹⁷ tc The mispointed Hebrew term אֵשְׁדָּת (’eshdat) should perhaps be construed as אֵשְׁהַת (’eshhat) with Smr.
