Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(21).And ye shall proclaim on the selfsame day.--This proclamation was made to the people by the priest with trumpet blasts.Ye shall do no servile work.--For what constituted servile work, see Leviticus 23:7.A statute for ever . . . . --See Leviticus 23:14, Leviticus 3:17; Leviticus 7:23-25. In accordance with this declaration, and with the fact that the Jews during the second Temple regarded it as the day on which the Decalogue was given, the Israelites to this day sacredly keep this festival on the 6th and 7th of Sivan, i.e. between the second half of May and the first half of June. From their circumstances, however, the harvest character of the festival is now subordinate, and more prominence is given to its commemorating the giving of the Law on Sinai. Still the synagogues and the private houses are adorned with flowers and odoriferous herbs. The male members of the community purify themselves for its celebration by immersion and confession of sin, and many of them spend all night in their respective places of worship.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewOn thatהַזֶּ֗ה (haz·zeh)Article | Pronoun - masculine singularStrong's 2088: This, thatsameבְּעֶ֣צֶם ׀ (bə·‘e·ṣem)Preposition-b | Noun - feminine singular constructStrong's 6106: A bone, the body, the substance, selfsamedayהַיּ֣וֹם (hay·yō·wm)Article | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 3117: A dayyou are to proclaimוּקְרָאתֶ֞ם (ū·qə·rā·ṯem)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Conjunctive perfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 7121: To call, proclaim, reada sacredקֹ֙דֶשׁ֙ (qō·ḏeš)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 6944: A sacred place, thing, sanctityassembly,מִֽקְרָא־ (miq·rā-)Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 4744: Something called out, a public meeting, a rehearsalandלָכֶ֔ם (lā·ḵem)Preposition | second person masculine pluralStrong's Hebrew you are notלֹ֣א (lō)Adverb - Negative particleStrong's 3808: Not, noto doתַעֲשׂ֑וּ (ṯa·‘ă·śū)Verb - Qal - Imperfect - second person masculine pluralStrong's 6213: To do, makeanyכָּל־ (kāl-)Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 3605: The whole, all, any, everyregular work.מְלֶ֥אכֶת (mə·le·ḵeṯ)Noun - feminine singular constructStrong's 4399: Deputyship, ministry, employment, work, propertyThis is to be a permanentעוֹלָ֛ם (‘ō·w·lām)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 5769: Concealed, eternity, frequentatively, alwaysstatuteחֻקַּ֥ת (ḥuq·qaṯ)Noun - feminine singular constructStrong's 2708: Something prescribed, an enactment, statutewhereverבְּכָל־ (bə·ḵāl)Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 3605: The whole, all, any, everyyou liveמוֹשְׁבֹ֥תֵיכֶ֖ם (mō·wō·šə·ḇō·ṯê·ḵem)Noun - masculine plural construct | second person masculine pluralStrong's 4186: A seat, assembly, dwelling place, dwelling, dwellersfor the generations to come.לְדֹרֹֽתֵיכֶֽם׃ (lə·ḏō·rō·ṯê·ḵem)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine plural construct | second person masculine pluralStrong's 1755: A revolution of time, an age, generation, a dwellingJump to PreviousAge-During Assembly Convocation Dwelling Dwellings Everlasting Field-Work Forever Generations Hold Holy Laborious Manner Meeting Ordinance Perpetual Places Proclaim Proclaimed Proclamation Regular Rule Sacred Selfsame Self-Same Servile Statute Therein Throughout Work
