אוַיַּעֲמֹד הָעָם עַל מֹשֶׁה. לְהַמְתִּין שֶׁיּוּכַל לִפְנוֹת אֲלֵיהֶם אַחַר עִסְקֵי הָרַבִּים וּגְדוֹלֵי הַדּוֹר:
1ויעמוד העם על משה, waiting till he would find time to address their individual problems after he had finished dealing with the collective problems pertaining to the whole community and had finished listening to the people’s dignitaries.
