Nombres 33:5 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 33:5

And the children of Israel removed from Rameses
Or Pelusium, as the same Targum again:

and pitched in Succoth:
where, as the same paraphrase says, they were covered with the clouds of glory, suggesting that to be the reason of its name; but that was rather because of the booths or tents the Israelites erected, pitched, and dwelt in, during their abode there: this, according to Bunting F2, was eight miles from Rameses; according to whose computation, for want of a better guide, the distances of the several stations from each other will be given.

Nombres 33:5 In-Context

3 Les enfants d'Israël partirent de Ramsès le premier mois, au quinzième jour du premier mois, le lendemain de la Pâque; ils sortirent à main levée, à la vue de tous les Égyptiens.
4 Et les Égyptiens ensevelissaient ceux que l'Éternel avait frappés parmi eux, tous les premiers-nés; l'Éternel avait même exercé des jugements sur leurs dieux.
5 Et les enfants d'Israël partirent de Ramsès, et campèrent à Succoth.
6 Ils partirent de Succoth, et campèrent à Étham, qui est au bout du désert.
7 Puis ils partirent d'Étham, se détournèrent vers Pi-Hahiroth, qui est en face de Baal-Tsephon, et campèrent devant Migdol.
