-=-=-=-=-=-=-
14 [1] **Men of continuous employment** Men designed to continuously devote themselves to this. Israel will separate out in order to [be able to] pass through the land and gather the scattered [corpses].
[2] **burying with those who pass through** Burying with (Heb. אֶת) those who pass through; the corpses (אֶתהַנוֹתָרִים) that will block off and hinder the crossing. Those who crossed the ocean will bury them for their own benefit. **with those who pass through** Heb. אֶת הַעֹבְרִים, with those who pass through. So I heard, and so did Jonathan render.
[3] **those who are left on the surface of the land** far from the crossing. Those who cross the sea will not occupy themselves with burying them. Those designated to devote themselves to this purpose will bury them.
[4] **at the end of seven months** the majority of the corpses visible to the eye will have been buried; from then on they will probe through the land in the hidden places, in the briars and among the thorns, and bury whomever find.
