And [so] it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the
 tabernacle
 Or "days of number", which were so few that they might be easily numbered: the Targum of Jonathan interprets them of the seven days of the week, as if the sense was, when the cloud rested a week on the tabernacle: 
 according to the commandment of the Lord they abode in their tents;
 during these few days, be they a week, or more, or less: 
 and according to the commandment of the Lord they journeyed;
 when it removed from the tabernacle.
