Footnotes

  1. Exodus 33:9 tn Heb “and it was when.”
  2. Exodus 33:9 tn Heb “and he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  3. Exodus 33:9 tn Both verbs, “stand” and “speak,” are perfect tenses with vav (ו) consecutive.
  4. Exodus 33:10 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.
