Exodus 35

The Readings · Oct 27, 2026 · 4m

Exodus 35 read aloud, in a fresh direct translation from the Hebrew — plain modern English, nothing added.

Translator's notes:

• Exodus 35:7 — תְּחָשִׁים (techashim): chose "tachash". Alternatives: dugong skins; badger skins; fine leather. Why: the animal or material meant by this word is unknown, so the Hebrew is kept.

• Exodus 35:22 — כּוּמָז (kumaz): chose "ornaments". Alternatives: necklaces; golden beads. Why: the word occurs only twice and the specific item of jewelry is uncertain.
