24:2Moses alone may come5 near the Lord, but the others6 must not come near,7 nor may the people go up with him.”
Footnotes
- 5 The verb is a perfect tense with a vav (ו) consecutive; it and the preceding perfect tense follow the imperative, and so have either a force of instruction, or, as taken here, are the equivalent of an imperfect tense (of permission).
- 6 Heb “they.”
- 7 Now the imperfect tense negated is used; here the prohibition would fit (“they will not come near”), or the obligatory (“they must not”) in which the subjects are obliged to act—or not act in this case.
