Deuteronomy 29:23

29:23 The whole land will be covered with brimstone, salt, and burning debris; it will not be planted nor will it sprout or produce grass. It will resemble the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the Lord destroyed in his intense anger. 1 

Deuteronomy 33:16

33:16 with the harvest of the earth and its fullness

and the pleasure of him who resided in the burning bush. 2 

May blessing rest on Joseph’s head,

and on the top of the head of the one set apart 3  from his brothers.

1 tn Heb “the anger and the wrath.” This construction is a hendiadys intended to intensify the emotion.

2 tn The expression “him who resided in the bush” is frequently understood as a reference to the appearance of the Lord to Moses at Sinai from a burning bush (so NIV, NCV, TEV, CEV, NLT; cf. Exod 2:2-6; 3:2, 4). To make this reference clear the word “burning” is supplied in the translation.

3 sn This apparently refers to Joseph’s special status among his brothers as a result of his being chosen by God to save the family from the famine and to lead Egypt.
