Footnotes
- 45 The two words can form a nominal hendiadys, “a dreadful fear,” though most English versions retain the two separate terms.
- 46 The form is an imperfect.
- 47 The adjective is in construct form and governs the noun “arm” (“arm” being the anthropomorphic expression for what God did). See §132.c.
- 48 For a study of the words for fear, see N. Waldman, “A Comparative Note on Exodus 15:14–16,” 66 (1976): 189–92.
- 49 Clauses beginning with עַד (’ad) express a limit that is not absolute, but only relative, beyond which the action continues ( §138.g).
- 50 The verb קָנָה (qanah) here is the verb “acquire, purchase,” and probably not the homonym “to create, make” (see Gen 4:1; Deut 32:6; and Prov 8:22).
