Exodus 19:16

Context

19:16 On 1  the third day in the morning there was thunder and lightning and a dense 2  cloud on the mountain, and the sound of a very loud 3  horn; 4  all the people who were in the camp trembled.

1 tn Heb “and it was on.”

2 tn Heb “heavy” (כָּבֵד, kaved).

3 tn Literally “strong” (חָזָק, khazaq).

4 tn The word here is שֹׁפָר (shofar), the normal word for “horn.” This word is used especially to announce something important in a public event (see 1 Kgs 1:34; 2 Sam 6:15). The previous word used in the context (v. 16) was יֹבֵל (yovel, “ram’s horn”).
