Context — The Journey from Horebgenerated

18And at that time I commanded you all the things you were to do.
19And just as the LORD our God had commanded us, we set out from Horeb and went toward the hill country of the Amorites, through all the vast and terrifying wilderness you have seen. When we reached Kadesh-barnea,
20I said: “You have reached the hill country of the Amorites, which the LORD our God is giving us.
21See, the LORD your God has placed the land before you. Go up and take possession of it as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has told you. Do not be afraid or discouraged.”

Deuteronomy 1:19 describes the Israelites' departure from Horeb, a significant moment in their journey through the wilderness. This passage emphasizes their obedience to God's command as they move toward the hill country of the Amorites, navigating through a vast and daunting wilderness. It serves as a reminder of God's guidance and the challenges faced along the way, culminating in their arrival at Kadesh-barnea, an important site in their journey toward the Promised Land.

The Key Word נָסַע, va.ni.Sa'generated

The verb נָסַע (na.sa') means to set out or depart, particularly in the context of a journey. It is a sequential imperfect verb, indicating an ongoing action in the past, specifically the Israelites' departure from Horeb. This word conveys the act of beginning a journey, which is central to the narrative of the Israelites' travels.

In this verse, the use of נָסַע highlights the obedience of the Israelites to God's command, as they set out on the path laid before them. The journey is not just a physical movement but also a spiritual undertaking, reflecting their faith and commitment to follow God's instructions.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

Sentence Structuregenerated

The main finite verb in this verse is נָסַע, we set out, which governs the entire sentence. It is followed by a series of phrases that provide context: a prepositional phrase indicating the starting point, a noun phrase describing the destination, and additional clauses that elaborate on the wilderness experienced by the Israelites.

The structure emphasizes the sequence of actions: first they set out, then they walked, and finally they reached Kadesh-barnea, illustrating the progression of their journey.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates נָסַע as ἀπάραντες (aparantēs), which means 'having departed'. This choice reflects a direct connection to the act of leaving, emphasizing the transition from one location to another.

The use of this Greek term indicates a focus on the departure itself, aligning with the overall theme of movement and obedience to divine command in the narrative.

The Masoretic Text is supported by the Septuagint in most of its wording, with only minor differences in structure. The Samaritan Pentateuch shows variations in four words, including different forms of נָסַע and וַנֵּ֡לֶךְ, but maintains the overall meaning of the verse.

אֵת (eth) is primarily a grammatical marker in Hebrew, indicating the definite direct object of a verb. It is not translated into English and typically precedes nouns that are definite. The word is derived from a demonstrative sense of entity, related to the Hebrew word for 'self.' Its Aramaic equivalent is יָת (yat).

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Egyptian saws, so far as has yet been discovered, are single-handed. As is the case in modern Oriental saws, the teeth usually incline toward the handle, instead of away from it like ours. They have, in most cases, bronze blades, apparently attached to the handles by leathern thongs. No evidence exists of the use of the saw applied to stone in Egypt, but we read of sawn stones used in the temple. (1 Kings 7:9) The saws "under" or "in" which David is said to have placed his captives were of iron. The expression in (2 Samuel 12:31) does not necessarily imply torture, but the word "cut" in (1 Chronicles 20:3) can hardly be understood otherwise.

אֵת (eth) is primarily a grammatical marker in Hebrew, indicating the definite direct object of a verb. It is not translated into English and typically precedes nouns that are definite. The word is derived from a demonstrative sense of entity, related to the Hebrew word for 'self.' Its Aramaic equivalent is יָת (yat).

The sacred city of the Hittites, on the left bank of the Orontes, about 4 miles south of the Lake of Homs. It is identified with the great mound Tell Neby Mendeh, some 50 to 100 feet high, and 400 yards long. On the ruins of the temple of Karnak, in Egypt, has been found an inscription recording the capture of this city by Rameses II. (See PHARAOH.) Here the sculptor “has chiselled in deep work on the stone, with a bold execution of the several parts, the procession of the warriors, the battle before Kadesh, the storming of the fortress, the overthrow of the enemy, and the camp life of the Egyptians.” (See HITTITES.)
