Exodus 17:11

Context
17:11 Whenever Moses would raise his hands, 1  then Israel prevailed, but whenever he would rest 2  his hands, then Amalek prevailed.

1 tn The two verbs in the temporal clauses are by וְהָיָה כַּאֲשֶׁר (vÿhaya kaasher, as long as or, “and it was that whenever”). This indicates that the two imperfect tenses should be given a frequentative translation, probably a customary imperfect.

2 tn Or “lower.”
