Discovery BoxExodus 14:16 
Context14:16 And as for you, 1 lift up your staff and extend your hand toward the sea and divide it, so that 2 the Israelites may go through the middle of the sea on dry ground.
Exodus 35:29
Context35:29 The Israelites brought a freewill offering to the Lord, every man and woman whose heart was willing to bring materials for all the work that the Lord through 3 Moses had commanded them 4 to do.
1 tn The conjunction plus pronoun (“and you”) is emphatic – “and as for you” – before the imperative “lift up.” In contrast, v. 17 begins with “and as for me, I….”
2 tn The imperfect (or jussive) with the vav (ו) is sequential, coming after the series of imperatives instructing Moses to divide the sea; the form then gives the purpose (or result) of the activity – “that they may go.”
3 tn Heb “by the hand of.”
4 tn Here “them” has been supplied.
