Exodus 8:17

Context
8:17 They did so; Aaron extended his hand with his staff, he struck the dust of the ground, and it became gnats on people 1  and on animals. All the dust of the ground became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.

Exodus 17:5

Context
17:5 The Lord said to Moses, “Go over before the people; 2  take with you some of the elders of Israel and take in your hand your staff with which you struck the Nile and go.

1 tn Heb “man,” but in the generic sense of “humans” or “people” (also in v. 18).

2 tn “Pass over before” indicates that Moses is the leader who goes first, and the people follow him. In other words, לִפְנֵי (lifney) indicates time and not place here (B. Jacob, Exodus, 477-78).
