Keluaran 16:34

16:34 Just as the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron placed it before the Testimony ¹  for safekeeping. ² 

Ibrani 9:4

9:4 It contained the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered entirely with gold. In this ark ³  were the golden urn containing the manna, Aaron’s rod that budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.

[16:34]  ¹ sn The “Testimony” is a reference to the Ark of the Covenant; so the pot of manna would be placed before Yahweh in the tabernacle. W. C. Kaiser says that this later instruction came from a time after the tabernacle had been built (see Exod 25:10-22; W. C. Kaiser, Jr., “Exodus,” EBC 2:405). This is not a problem since the final part of this chapter had to have been included at the end of the forty years in the desert.

[16:34]  ² tn “for keeping.”

[9:4]  ³ tn Grk “in which”; in the translation the referent (the ark) has been specified for clarity.
