Footnotes

  1. 13 See further J. Lindblom, “Lot Casting in the Old Testament,” 12 (1962): 164–78; E. Lipinski, “Urim and Thummim,” 20 (1970): 495–96; and S. E. Loewenstamm, “The Death of Moses,” 27 (1957/58): 142–57.
  2. 14 The Greek version adds “which is Mount Nebo.” This is a typical scribal change to harmonize two passages. The area is in the mountains of Moab; Deut 34:1 more precisely identifies it as Mount Nebo.
  3. 15 The imperative could be subordinated to the first to provide a purpose clause, although a second instruction fits well enough.
  4. 16 This perfect tense would best be classified as a perfect of resolve: “which I have decided to give.” God had not yet given the land to them, but it was certain he would.
