Exegesis
The preposition el {אֶל־ | ʾel} introduces motion toward the locative phrase penei {פְּנֵי | pə-nê} ‘front, face’ in construct with ohel {אֹהֶל | ʾō-hěl} ‘tent’ and moed {מוֹעֵד | mō-ʿēḏ} ‘appointed meeting’, forming ‘tent of meeting’. In English, the Hebrew order is preserved to maintain emphasis, rendering “front of the tent of meeting” to capture both spatial orientation and cultic function.
Root and etymology
י־ע־ד
“to appoint, assemble”
In context — Numbers 16:43
