‏ Exodus 39:43

43 Moses inspected ^{▼▼tn Or “examined” (NASB, TEV); NCV “looked closely at.”} all the work, and ^{▼▼tn The deictic particle draws attention to what he saw in such a way as to give the reader Moses’ point of view and a sense of his pleasure: “and behold, they….”} they had done it just as the Lord had commanded—they had done it exactly—and Moses blessed them. ^{▼▼sn The situation and wording in Exod 39:43 are reminiscent of Gen 1:28 and 31, with the motifs of blessing people and inspecting what has been made.}
