With the Hebrew beneath
Deuteronomy 34:10, word by word
- arisenקָםkam
rise
To go from sitting or lying to standing, or to set out.
Where else “kam” appears- a prophetנָבִיאnavi
prophet
Someone who speaks for YHWH.
Where else “navi” appears- in Israelיִשְׂרָאֵלyisrael
Israel
Israel, the new name Jacob received from God, explained as "you have striven with God" (Genesis 32:28); then the name of the people that came from him and, after the division, of the northern kingdom.
Where else “yisrael” appears- like Mosesמֹשֶׁהmoshe
Moses
Moses, the man God called to bring Israel out of Egypt and through whom he gave the Law. His name sounds like "draw out" (Exodus 2:10).
Where else “moshe” appears- YHWHיְהוָהyehva
YHWH
The personal name of the God of Israel, written in Hebrew with four letters, Y-H-W-H, without vowels. Out of reverence Jews stopped pronouncing it and read "Adonai" (Lord), so many Bibles put "the LORD" or "Jehovah". This translation keeps the four letters. The name is related to the verb "to be" (Exodus 3:14-15). He is not a god other than Elohim: "YHWH Elohim" is the same Creator God, called by his name.
Where else “yehva” appears- knewיְדָעyeda
know
To know something, realize.
Where else “yeda” appears- faceפָּנִיםpanim
presence
Literally "the face": being before someone, face to face.
Where else “panim” appears
Translation note
Moses had announced a prophet like him (18:15, 18); Peter applies this to Jesus (Acts 3:22).
The context
9And Joshua son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands on him; and the sons of Israel listened to him and did as YHWH had commanded Moses.
