Exodus 33:22

22 When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and will cover ^{▼▼ Note the use in Exod 40:3, “and you will screen the ark with the curtain.” The glory is covered, veiled from being seen.} you with my hand ^{▼▼ The circumstantial clause is simply, “my hand [being] over you.” This protecting hand of Yahweh represents a fairly common theme in the Bible.} while I pass by. ^{▼▼ The construction has a preposition with an infinitive construct and a suffix: “while [or until] I pass by” (Heb “in the passing by of me”).}
