The Tribes on the East
2:3“Now those who will be camping7 on the east, toward the sunrise,8 are the divisions9 of the camp of Judah under their standard. The leader of the people of Judah is10 Nahshon son of Amminadab. 2:4Those numbered in his division11 are 74,600.
Footnotes
- 7 The sentence begins with a vav (ו) on a word that is not a finite verb, indicating a new section begins here. The verbal form is a participle with the article used substantivally, with the meaning “and/now those camping.” Many English versions employ a finite verb; cf. “on the east side … shall they of the standard of the camp of Judah pitch.”
- 8 The two synonyms might seem to be tautological, but this is fairly common and therefore acceptable in Hebrew prose (cf. Exod 26:18; 38:13; etc.).
- 9 The sentence actually has “[those camping … are] the standard of the camp of Judah according to their divisions.”
- 10 Or “will be.”
- 11 The expression “and his divisions and those numbered of them” is somewhat tautological. The words are synonyms used for statistical purposes, and so neither should be simply deleted.
