וְהָיָ֗ה כְּצֵ֤את מֹשֶׁה֙ אֶל־הָאֹ֔הֶל יָק֙וּמוּ֙ כָּל־הָעָ֔ם וְנִ֨צְּב֔וּ אִ֖ישׁ פֶּ֣תַח אָהֳל֑וֹ וְהִבִּ֙יטוּ֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י מֹשֶׁ֔ה עַד־בֹּא֖וֹ הָאֹֽהֱלָה׃
און עס איז געװען, װי משה איז אַרױסגעגאַנגען צום געצעלט, אַזױ פֿלעגט דאָס גאַנצע פֿאָלק זיך אױפֿשטעלן, און שטײן איטלעכער אין אײַנגאַנג פֿון זײַן געצעלט, און נאָכקוקן משהן, ביז ער גײט אַרײַן אין געצעלט.
Rashi
והיה — This expresses an action continually going on (“and it used to be”),
Chizkuni
והיה כצאת משה, “it would be that whenever Moses came out, etc.;” this describes Moses leaving the camp of the Israelites in order to return to his private residence (tent).'
Siftei Chakhamim
To go to the tent. Rashi is answering the question: Why is it written, “Whenever Moshe went out to the tent”? It should say: “Whenever Moshe entered the tent.” Rashi answers that “went out” refers to Moshe’s exit from the Israelite camp, not Moshe’s tent.
Rashi
כצאת משה WHEN MOSES WENT OUT from the camp in order to go אל האהל INTO THE TENT, יקומו כל העם ALL THE PEOPLE ROSE UP — they used to stand up before him and did not sit down until he vanished from their sight (Hebrew: was hidden from them).
Rashi
והביטו אחרי משה AND THEY LOOKED AFTER MOSES — Not sneeringly but out of admiration; they exclaimed: Happy is the human being (Hebrew: one born of woman) who is so sure that the Shechina will enter the door of his tent after him (cf. Kiddushin 33b; Midrash Tanchuma, Ki Tisa 27, Exodus Rabbah 51:6).
Rashi
And they would gaze after Moshe — in an admiring way, [saying, in effect:] “Fortunate is one born of woman who is assured that the Shechinah will follow him into the entranceway of his tent.”
