13:2“Send out men to investigate3 the land of Canaan, which I am giving4 to the Israelites. You are to send one man from each ancestral tribe,5 each one a leader among them.”
Footnotes
- 3 The imperfect tense with the conjunction is here subordinated to the preceding imperative to form the purpose clause. It can thus be translated “send … to investigate.”
- 4 The participle here should be given a future interpretation, meaning “which I am about to give” or “which I am going to give.”
- 5 Heb “one man one man of the tribe of his fathers.”
