Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 16. - So it was alway. This supernatural phenomenon was not transitory, like the glory-cloud within the tabernacle (Exodus 40:35; cf. 1 Kings 8:10), but permanent, as long at least as the Israelites were in the wilderness.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(16) The cloud covered it by day.--There is no need for the insertion of the words in italics. It was the same cloud which was "alway" over the Tabernacle during the continuance of the journeyings through the wilderness.And the appearance of fire by night.--Better, and there was the appearance of fire by night. (Comp. Exodus 13:21-22.)
