Footnotes
- 16 The word חָדָה (khada) is rare, occurring only in Job 3:6 and Ps 21:6, although it is common in Aramaic. The translated it “he shuddered.” U. Cassuto suggests that that rendering was based on the midrashic interpretation in Sanhedrin 94b, “he felt cuts in his body”—a wordplay on the verb (Exodus, ).
- 17 This is a common form of praise. The verb בָּרוּךְ (barukh) is the Qal passive participle of the verb. Here must be supplied a jussive, making this participle the predicate: “May Yahweh be blessed.” The verb essentially means “to enrich”; in praise it would mean that he would be enriched by the praises of the people.
- 18 Heb “from under the hand of the Egyptians.”
