The Key Word — מִדְבָּר, u.va.mid.Bargenerated
The word מִדְבָּר (midbar) primarily means 'wilderness' or 'desert', derived from a root meaning to drive, suggesting open, uninhabited land. In this verse, it refers to the wilderness where the Israelites wandered, emphasizing a place of solitude and divine provision.
While מִדְבָּר can mean 'mouth', its use here highlights the Israelites' journey through a desolate landscape, a setting often associated with testing and divine guidance in the biblical narrative.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verb נְשָׂאֲךָ (he carried you) governs the sentence, with a series of phrases elaborating on the action. The structure emphasizes the relationship between God and the Israelites, framing their journey as one of care and support.
The phrase בְּכָל־ הַדֶּ֙רֶךְ֙ (all the way) serves to encapsulate the entirety of their travels, indicating that God's guidance was present throughout their journey.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates מִדְבָּר as ἐρήμῳ (erēmō), which means 'desert' or 'wilderness'. This choice aligns closely with the Hebrew, indicating a barren and desolate area, reinforcing the theme of isolation and reliance on God.
The use of ἣν (hēn) for אֲשֶׁר reflects a direct connection to the preceding clause, maintaining the flow of thought about God's actions.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text presents the verse as: "וּבַמִּדְבָּר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר רָאִ֔יתָ אֲשֶׁ֤ר נְשָׂאֲךָ֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר יִשָּׂא־ אִ֖ישׁ אֶת־ בְּנ֑וֹ בְּכָל־ הַדֶּ֙רֶךְ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר הֲלַכְתֶּ֔ם עַד־ בֹּאֲכֶ֖ם עַד־ הַמָּק֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃" The Samaritan Pentateuch agrees with the Masoretic Text here, word for word. The Septuagint matches closely with the Masoretic Text, with 20 out of 21 words corresponding, though its word order and articles differ due to its translation style. The Dead Sea Scrolls (4Q35) contain fragments that include 1 word on the leather and 1 partly restored, with the rest supplied by an editor, indicating some textual agreement but also restoration work. Overall, the main witnesses largely agree with the Masoretic Text, with minor variations in wording and structure.
וּבַמִּדְבָּר֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר רָאִ֔יתָ אֲשֶׁ֤ר נְשָׂאֲךָ֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר יִשָּׂא־ אִ֖ישׁ אֶת־ בְּנ֑וֹ בְּכָל־ הַדֶּ֙רֶךְ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר הֲלַכְתֶּ֔ם עַד־ בֹּאֲכֶ֖ם עַד־ הַמָּק֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
20 of the 21 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.
ובמדבר אשׁר ראית אשׁר נשׂאך יהוה אלהיך כאשׁר ישׂא אישׁ את בנו בכל הדרך אשׁר הלכתם עד באכם עד המקום הזה
Agrees with the Masoretic Text here, word for word.
[ובמדבר] אשר ראית [אשר] [נשא׳ך] [יהוה] [אלהי׳ך] [כאשר] [ישא] [איש] [את] [בנ׳ו] [בכל] [הדרך] [אשר] [הלכתם] [עד] [בא׳כם] [עד] [המקום] [הזה]
1 word on the leather — 1 partly restored, 19 supplied entire by an editor.
Four traditions, not one. “On the leather” means the letters physically survive on the scroll, as against letters an editor has supplied to fill a hole in it — a restoration is a scholar’s reading, not a reading of the manuscript. Words in [square brackets] are supplied; the notes count them apart from what survives.

מִדְבָּר (midbar) primarily means 'mouth' in the sense of an organ of speech, but it also refers to 'wilderness' or 'desert.' The word is derived from a root meaning to drive, suggesting open fields for pasturing cattle. It encompasses various forms of uninhabited land and is notably used in contexts related to the wilderness, such as the Wilderness of Sinai.

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.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'

יהוה is not used by E in Gn, but is given Ex 3:12-15 as the name of the God who revealed Himself to Moses at Horeb
יהוה is used with אלהים and suffixes, especially in D

See DAY'S JOURNEY; SABBATH DAY'S JOURNEY.
Journey
(1.) A day’s journey in the East is from 16 to 20 miles (Num. 11:31).
(2.) A Sabbath-day’s journey is 2,000 paces or yards from the city walls (Acts 1:12). According to Jewish tradition, it was the distance one might travel without violating the law of Ex. 16:29. (See SABBATH.)
A "sabbath-day’s journey," among the Jews, seems to have been reckoned at about seven furlongs, or nearly one mile, Mt 24:20 Ac 1:12. An ordinary day’s journey is about twenty miles. Persons starting on a journey in the East frequently make their first stage a short one, that they may the more easily send back for any forgotten articles or necessary supplies. This may perhaps apply to the "day’s journey" of the parents of Jesus, mentioned in Lu 2:44.
For the journeyings of the Israelites, see EXODUS, and WANDERINGS.
