Exegesis
The spatial modifier negdo {נֶ֫גְדּ֥וֹ | neḡdô} ‘before Him’ tightens the focus by locating the brightness directly in front of the implied divine figure; the suffix supplies the referent without naming Him explicitly.
Root and etymology
consonantsNun–Gimel–Dalet
“to be in front of”
In context — Psalm 18:12
From the brightness before Him, His clouds passed on—hail and coals of fire.
