Deuteronomy 3:28
Context3:28 Commission 1 Joshua, and encourage and strengthen him, because he will lead these people over and will enable them to inherit the land you will see.”
Deuteronomy 11:8
Context11:8 Now pay attention to all the commandments 2 I am giving 3 you today, so that you may be strong enough to enter and possess the land where you are headed, 4
[3:28] 1 tn Heb “command”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “charge Joshua.”
[11:8] 2 tn Heb “the commandment.” The singular מִצְוָה (mitsvah, “commandment”) speaks here as elsewhere of the whole corpus of covenant stipulations in Deuteronomy (cf. 6:1, 25; 7:11; 8:1).
[11:8] 3 tn Heb “commanding” (so NASB, NRSV). For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, “giving” has been used in the translation (likewise in vv. 13, 27).
[11:8] 4 tn Heb “which you are crossing over there to possess it.”
