Hebrew & Septuagint length

In English translation the verse runs 23 words from the Hebrew and 21 from the Septuagint (LXX English) — closely comparable.

A rough comparison of the two English renderings, which tokenize alike — not a word-level alignment.

Word counts can differ between the Hebrew and the Greek without any difference in meaning — e.g. the Hebrew direct-object marker אֵת has no separate Greek word, and Greek often adds the article ὁ.

Targum (Aramaic paraphrase)

2

The Targum is the ancient Jewish Aramaic paraphrase of the Hebrew Scriptures — an interpretive translation, not the Hebrew text itself. Onkelos (literal) and Pseudo-Jonathan (expansive) render the Torah, and Jonathan the Prophets. Coverage is partial: where no permissively-licensed English translation exists for a verse, only the Aramaic is shown. This is verse-level text, not a word-by-word alignment to the Hebrew.

  1. Targum Onkelos Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)
    וּלְאַלָפָא יְהַב בְּלִבֵּהּ הוּא וְאָהֳלִיאָב בַּר אֲחִיסָמָךְ לְשִׁבְטָא דְדָן:

  2. Targum Pseudo-Jonathan Torah (Genesis–Deuteronomy)

Commentary

Notes on Exodus 35:34 from classic Christian and Jewish commentators (each source and its license shown beneath its notes). The classic Christian expositions comment on the surrounding passage and are grouped to its opening verse, so a note may address several verses; the Jewish commentaries on the Tanakh (Rashi and others) are per-verse, so they appear only where the commentator wrote on this verse.

gen. ed. J. J. S. Perowne

34. that he may teach] i.e. instruct others to become skilled workmen likewise. The assistance of the ‘wise hearted’ is promised in Exo_31:6 (cf. Exo_36:1-2; Exo_36:4; Exo_36:8); but it is not elsewhere said that Bĕẓal’çl and Oholiab should instruct them.

Matthew Poole's English Annotations

That he may teach, to wit, others to work under him; for the work required many hands; and it is a peculiar gift of God to be apt to teach, which every skilful man hath not.

The Pulpit Commentary

And he hath put in his heart that he may teach. Rather, "And he hath put it into his heart to teach." He (God) has given him the gift of being able to teach others, and so has enabled him to form a body of workmen competent to carry out his conceptions. Both he and Aholiab. God has given the same gift to Aholiab. On the special talent of Aholiab, see the comment upon Exo_31:6.

Rashi

Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki (Rashi)

ואהליאב AND OHOLIAB — he was of the tribe of Dan, of one of the lowest of the tribes, of the sons of the handmaids, and yet the Omnipresent placed him with regard to the work of the Tabernacle on a level with Bezalel although he was a member of one of the noble tribes (Judah)! in order to confirm what Scripture says, (Job 34:19) “He regardeth not the rich more than the poor” (Midrash Tanchuma 2:10:13).

Lesson kit

Teaching starters — assembled from the data on this page, not authored interpretation. Every prompt links to the verse data it draws on. Edit before teaching.

Exodus, in the Pentateuch, opens this verse with 9 words (9 distinct Hebrew lemmas). Its most distinctive word is ʼĂchîyçâmâk (“Ahisamach”). A historical commentator’s framing appears above. Read the whole chapter for the surrounding context.

Discussion questions

  1. The word ʼĂchîyçâmâk carries the sense “Ahisamach.” How does it shape the verse?
  2. How does Exodus 31:6, which shares the word «Ahisamach», read alongside this verse?
  3. These translations render this verse differently. What is at stake in choosing one wording over another?
  4. «וּלְהוֹרֹ֖ת» is a Hiphil Infinitive Construct verb. How does that grammatical form shape the action described?
  5. Compare how The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges and Matthew Poole's English Annotations read this verse. Where do they agree or differ?
