Exodus 38:31

38:31 the bases for the courtyard all around, the bases for the gate of the courtyard, all the tent pegs of the tabernacle, and all the tent pegs of the courtyard all around. ¹¹ 

Exodus 40:9

40:9 And take ¹²  the anointing oil, and anoint ¹³  the tabernacle and all that is in it, and sanctify ¹⁴  it and all its furnishings, and it will be holy.

[4:28]  ¹ tn This verb and the last one in the verse are rendered with the past perfect nuance because they refer to what the Lord had done prior to Moses’ telling Aaron.

[13:2]  ² tn The verb “sanctify” is the Piel imperative of קָדַשׁ (qadash). In the Qal stem it means “be holy, be set apart, be distinct,” and in this stem “sanctify, set apart.”

[13:2]  ³ tn The word פֶּטֶּר (petter) means “that which opens”; this construction literally says, “that which opens every womb,” which means “the first offspring of every womb.” Verses 12 and 15 further indicate male offspring.

[13:2]  ⁴ tn Heb “to me it.” The preposition here expresses possession; the construction is simply “it [is, belongs] to me.”

[19:8]  ³ tn The verb is an imperfect. The people are not being presumptuous in stating their compliance – there are several options open for the interpretation of this tense. It may be classified as having a desiderative nuance: “we are willing to do” or, “we will do.”

[23:27]  ⁴ tn The word for “terror” is אֵימָתִי (’emati); the word has the thought of “panic” or “dread.” God would make the nations panic as they heard of the exploits and knew the Israelites were drawing near. U. Cassuto thinks the reference to “hornets” in v. 28 may be a reference to this fear, an unreasoning dread, rather than to another insect invasion (Exodus, 308). Others suggest it is symbolic of an invading army or a country like Egypt or literal insects (see E. Neufeld, “Insects as Warfare Agents in the Ancient Near East,” Or 49 [1980]: 30-57).

[23:27]  ⁵ tn Heb “kill.”

[23:27]  ⁶ tn The text has “and I will give all your enemies to you [as] a back.” The verb of making takes two accusatives, the second being the adverbial accusative of product (see GKC 371-72 §117.ii, n. 1).

[33:10]  ⁵ tn All the main verbs in this verse are perfect tenses continuing the customary sequence (see GKC 337 §112.kk). The idea is that the people would get up (rise) when the cloud was there and then worship, meaning in part bow down. When the cloud was not there, there was access to seek God.

[36:4]  ⁶ tn Heb “a man, a man from his work”; or “each one from his work.”

[38:31]  ⁷ sn The bronze altar is the altar for the burnt offering; the large bronze basin is not included here in the list.

[40:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “you will take” (perfect with vav, ו).

[40:9]  ⁹ tn Heb “and you will anoint” (perfect with vav, ו).

[40:9]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “and you will sanctify” (perfect with vav, ו).
