Exodus 22:26-27

Context
22:26 If you do take 1  the garment of your neighbor in pledge, you must return it to him by the time the sun goes down, 2  22:27 for it is his only covering – it is his garment for his body. 3  What else can he sleep in? 4  And 5  when he cries out to me, I will hear, for I am gracious.

Revelation 18:22

Context

18:22 And the sound of the harpists, musicians,

flute players, and trumpeters

will never be heard in you 6  again.

No 7  craftsman 8  who practices any trade

will ever be found in you again;

the noise of a mill 9  will never be heard in you again.

[22:26]  1 tn The construction again uses the infinitive absolute with the verb in the conditional clause to stress the condition.

[22:26]  2 tn The clause uses the preposition, the infinitive construct, and the noun that is the subjective genitive – “at the going in of the sun.”

[22:27]  3 tn Heb “his skin.”

[22:27]  4 tn Literally the text reads, “In what can he lie down?” The cloak would be used for a covering at night to use when sleeping. The garment, then, was the property that could not be taken and not given back – it was the last possession. The modern idiom of “the shirt off his back” gets at the point being made here.

[22:27]  5 tn Heb “and it will be.”

[18:22]  6 tn The shift to a second person pronoun here corresponds to the Greek text.

[18:22]  7 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[18:22]  8 tn On this term BDAG 1001 s.v. τεχνίτης states, “craftsperson, artisan, designer…Of a silversmith Ac 19:24, 25 v.l., 38….Of a potter 2 Cl 8:2 (metaph., cp. Ath. 15:2). πᾶς τεχνίτης πάσης τέχνης Rv 18:22.”

[18:22]  9 tn This is a different Greek word (μύλος, mulos) from the one for the millstone in v. 21 (μύλινος, mulinos). See L&N 7.68.
