Exegesis
The frame mimitzrayim veadhennah {מִמִּצְרַ֖יִם וְעַד־הֵֽנָּה | mî-miṣ-rā-yim wə-ʿad-hen-nā(h)} ‘from Egypt until now’ highlights the continuity of divine pardon. The Hebrew vav-coordinated structures link the plea with the precedent of past forgiveness, creating a balanced appeal grounded in Israel’s history.
In context — Numbers 14:19
Please forgive the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Your mercy, and just as You have forgiven this people from Egypt even until now.
