ExplanationCommentary
Verse 5. Longer, and with interruptions. Hebrew teruha, “a signal,” an alarm. Septuagint “a loud cry of victory.” Chal. “the taratantara,” as Montanus translates, in allusion to the sound of the Hebrew word, ( Calmet.) or of the trumpets. When they were sounded with a variety of notes, or at different intervals, all knew that the camp was to break up, even though they had not been attentive to the motions of the cloud. Then Juda led the van. Calmet. 2:9. Bible.
