(0.31) (Exo 8:15)

tn The word רְוָחָה (revakhah) means “respite, relief.” BDB 926 relates it to the verb רָוַח (ravakh, “to be wide, spacious”). There would be relief when there was freedom to move about.

(0.31) (Exo 8:16)

(0.31) (Exo 4:20)

(0.31) (Exo 4:12)

sn The promise of divine presence always indicates intervention (for blessing or cursing). Here it means that God would be working through the organs of speech to help Moses speak. See Deut 18:18; Jer 1:9.

(0.31) (Gen 49:13)

tn Heb “he ruined [it] to the ground.” The direct object is implied. Onan deliberately got rid of his semen on the ground so that his brother’s widow would not become pregnant.

(0.31) (Gen 35:16)
