Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 46. - It was unnecessary that Moses should tell the people the precise length of time they abode in Kadesh after this, because that was well known to them; he, therefore, contents himself with saying that they remained there as long as they did remain (comp. for a similar expression, Deuteronomy 9:25). How long they actually remained there cannot be determined, for the expression, many days, is wholly indefinite.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(46) So ye abode in Kadesh many days.--Better, and. In Numbers 14:25 the command was, "Tomorrow turn you, and get you into the wilderness." This command was broken by the attack on the Canaanites, made on the morrow after the command. We cannot be certain that the many days spent in Kadesh were spent after the defeat. It may be merely a note of the fact that the time spent in Kadesh was considerable. The mission of the spies alone occupied forty days.According unto the days that ye abode there.--The Jewish commentator Rashi, quoting from Seder Olam, says they in Kadesh, and nineteen in their wanderings.
