And so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle,.... Or "days of number", which were so few that they might be easily numbered: the Targum of Jonathan interprets them of the seven days of the week, as if the sense was, when the cloud rested a week on the tabernacle:
according to the commandment of the Lord they abode in their tents; during these few days, be they a week, or more, or less:
and according to the commandment of the Lord they journeyed; when it removed from the tabernacle.
