he has gone on a journey of some distance.
7:20He has taken a bag of money with him;40
Footnotes
- 38 Heb “the man.” The interpreted it as “my husband,” taking the article to be used as a possessive. Many English versions do the same.
- 39 Heb “in his house.”
- 40 Heb “in his hand.”
- 41 Heb “he will come back at.”
- 42 Heb “new moon.” Judging from the fact that the husband took a purse of money and was staying away until the next full moon, the woman implies that they would be safe in their escapade. If v. 9 and v. 20 are any clue, he could be gone for about two weeks—until the moon is full again.
