Numbers 10:35 - Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes

Bible Comments

(Numbers 10:35-36) These two verses are marked Hebrew Manuscripts by "inverted Nuns", i.e. the Hebrew letter (n) inverted and used as brackets, to show that Numbers 10:35 and Numbers 10:36 are thus enclosed to show that Numbers 10:34 should follow Numbers 10:36. This is shown by the Structure:

33. The setting forth of the ark. 35. "Rise up,. Jehovah" Words 36. "Return,. Jehovah" Spoken. 34. The setting forth of the cloud.

There are eight of these inverted nuns. See notes on Psalms 107:23-28.

Rise up.. beautiful prayer. Compare Psalms 3:7; Psalms 7:6; Psalms 10:12; Psalms 17:13; Psalms 44:26.

Numbers 10:35

35 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee.
