▼ The word in the text is פְדֻת (p^edut, “redemption”). This would give the sense of making a distinction by redeeming Israel. The editors wish to read פְלֻת (p^elut) instead – “a separation, distinction” to match the verb in the preceding verse. For another view, see G. I. Davies, “The Hebrew Text of Exodus VIII 19 [English 23]: An Emendation,” VT 24 (1974): 489-92.

▼ Heb “this sign will be tomorrow.”
