32:29Moses said, “You have been consecrated63 today for the Lord, for each of you was against his son or against his brother, so he has given a blessing to you today.”64
Footnotes
- 63 Heb “Your hand was filled.” The phrase “fill your hands” is a familiar expression having to do with commissioning and devotion to a task that is earlier used in 28:41; 29:9, 29, 33, 35. This has usually been explained as a Qal imperative. S. R. Driver explains it “Fill your hand today,” meaning, take a sacrifice to God and be installed in the priesthood (Exodus, ). But it probably is a Piel perfect, meaning “they have filled your hands today,” or, “your hand was filled today.” This was an expression meant to say that they had been faithful to God even though it turned them against family and friends—but God would give them a blessing.
- 64 The text simply has “and to give on you today a blessing.” Gesenius notes that the infinitive construct seems to be attached with a vav (ו; like the infinitive absolute) as the continuation of a previous finite verb. He reads the verb “fill” as an imperative: “fill your hand today … and that to bring a blessing on you, i.e., that you may be blessed” (see §114.p). If the preceding verb is taken as perfect tense, however, then this would also be perfect—“he has blessed you today.”
