Deuteronomy 5:22

Context
The Narrative of the Sinai Revelation and Israel’s Response

5:22 The Lord said these things to your entire assembly at the mountain from the middle of the fire, the cloud, and the darkness with a loud voice, and that was all he said. 1  Then he inscribed the words 2  on two stone tablets and gave them to me.

Deuteronomy 24:13

Context
24:13 You must by all means 3  return to him at sunset the item he gave you as security so that he may sleep in his outer garment and bless you for it; it will be considered a just 4  deed by the Lord your God.

Deuteronomy 33:2

Context
33:2 He said:

A Historical Review

The Lord came from Sinai

and revealed himself 5  to Israel 6  from Seir.

He appeared in splendor 7  from Mount Paran,

and came forth with ten thousand holy ones. 8 

With his right hand he gave a fiery law 9  to them.

1 tn Heb “and he added no more” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV); NLT “This was all he said at that time.”

2 tn Heb “them”; the referent (the words spoken by the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation seeks to reflect with “by all means.”

4 tn Or “righteous” (so NIV, NLT).

5 tn Or “rose like the sun” (NCV, TEV).

6 tc Heb “to him.” The LXX reads “to us” (לָנוּ [lanu] for לָמוֹ [lamo]), the reading of the MT is acceptable since it no doubt has in mind Israel as a collective singular.

tn Heb “him”; the referent (Israel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

7 tn Or “he shone forth” (NAB, NIV, NRSV, NLT).

8 tc With slight alteration (מִמְרִבַת קָדֵשׁ [mimrivat qadesh] for the MT’s מֵרִבְבֹת קֹדֶשׁ [merivvot qodesh]) the translation would be “from Meribah Kadesh” (cf. NAB, NLT; see Deut 32:51). However, the language of holy war in the immediate context favors the reading of the MT, which views the Lord as accompanied by angelic hosts.

9 tc The mispointed Hebrew term אֵשְׁדָּת (’eshdat) should perhaps be construed as אֵשְׁהַת (’eshhat) with Smr.
