Números 33:3 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 33:3

And they departed from Rameses
A city in Egypt, where the children of Israel, a little before their departure, seem to have been gathered together in a body, in order to march out all together, as they did. This place the Targum of Jonathan calls Pelusium. Dr. Shaw

FOOTNOTES:

F1 thinks it might be Cairo, from whence they set forward; see ( Exodus 12:37 ) and it was

in the first month;
in the month Nisan, as the same Targum, or Abib, which was appointed the first month on this account, and answers to part of our March and April:

on the fifteenth of the first month, on the morrow after the passover;
that was kept on the fourteenth, when the Lord passed over the houses of the Israelites, and slew all the firstborn in Egypt, which made way for their departure the next morning; the Egyptians being urgent upon them to be gone:

the children of Israel went out with an high hand in the sight of all
the Egyptians;
openly and publicly, with great courage and boldness, without any fear of their enemies; who seeing them march out, had no power to stop them, or to move their lips at them, nay, were willing to be rid of them; see ( Exodus 11:7 ) ( 12:33 ) .

Números 33:3 In-Context

1 Cuando los israelitas salieron de Egipto bajo la dirección de Moisés y de Aarón, marchaban ordenadamente, como un ejército.

2 Por mandato del SEÑOR, Moisés anotaba cada uno de los lugares de donde partían y adonde llegaban. Esta es la ruta que siguieron:

3 El día quince del mes primero, un día después de la Pascua, los israelitas partieron de Ramsés. Marcharon desafiantes a la vista de todos los egipcios,

4 mientras estos sepultaban a sus primogénitos, a quienes el SEÑOR había herido de muerte. El SEÑOR también dictó sentencia contra los dioses egipcios.

5 Los israelitas partieron de Ramsés y acamparon en Sucot.
