ביום הכותי. זמן כמו אתה עובר היום: ON THE DAY THAT I SMOTE. The word yom (day)48Here. means time.49The first-born were slain at night. See Ex. 12:29. Hence I.E.’s comment. Compare, Thou art this day (yom) to pass over (Deut. 2:18).50The meaning of this is, you are about to pass over, for Israel did not pass over the Jordan until Moses died.
