Numbers 25:6

Context

25:6 Just then 1  one of the Israelites came and brought to his brothers 2  a Midianite woman in the plain view of Moses and of 3  the whole community of the Israelites, while they 4  were weeping at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

1 tn The verse begins with the deictic particle וְהִנֵּה (vÿhinneh), pointing out the action that was taking place. It stresses the immediacy of the action to the reader.

2 tn Or “to his family”; or “to his clan.”

3 tn Heb “before the eyes of Moses and before the eyes of.”

4 tn The vav (ו) at the beginning of the clause is a disjunctive because it is prefixed to the nonverbal form. In this context it is best interpreted as a circumstantial clause, stressing that this happened “while” people were weeping over the sin.
