EXO 28:30 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

OET (OET-RV) Then place the ‘Urim’ and the ‘Tummim’[fn] in the sacred pouch so they’ll be over Aharon’s heart when he goes in before Yahweh, thus Aharon will continually bear the decisions of the Israelis over his heart before Yahweh.

28:30 These two objects appear abruptly in the text—they haven’t been described previously—in fact, they’re not described anywhere, so we don’t really know much about them except that it seems they were used somehow to indicate Yahweh’s decision on important matters. Although we presume that Mosheh must have already been familiar with them, sadly we’re unable to translate these two Hebrew words, because we’re not.

Key: khaki:verbs, green:YHWH.
