The relative particle marks the subordinate clause in 4QpaleoExodm, in agreement with the SP and the
LXX: hb wkly r#) Krdh t) Mhl t(dwhw, “and you will make known to them the way in which they must
walk.” Note that the MT marks the next clause, subordinated to the same verbal predicate, with the relative
particle: Nw#(y r#) h#(mh t)w, “and the deeds that they must do” (see J.E. Sanderson, An Exodus Scroll
from Qumran 957 , 117).
958 The MT lacks the harmonisation with Deut 1:9-18. 4QpaleoExodm agrees with the SP in this addition.
The SP and the LXX agree with the MT. The preposition introduces the dativus commodi: wcr) l) wl
Kly, “he got himself to his land” (see W. Gesenius, E. Kautzsch, and A.E. Cowley, Hebrew Grammar, 381,
§119s).
