Contextual Overview

29 Moses said to his brother-in-law Hobab son of Jethro the Midianite, "We are about to start out for the place which the Lord said he would give us. He has promised to make Israel prosperous, so come with us, and we will share our prosperity with you." 30 Hobab answered, "No, I am going back to my native land." 31 "Please don't leave us," Moses said. "You know where we can camp in the wilderness, and you can be our guide. 32 If you come with us, we will share with you all the blessings that the Lord gives us." 33 When the people left Sinai, the holy mountain, they traveled three days. The Lord 's Covenant Box always went ahead of them to find a place for them to camp. 34 As they moved on from each camp, the cloud of the Lord was over them by day. 35 Whenever the Covenant Box started out, Moses would say, "Arise, Lord ; scatter your enemies and put to flight those who hate you!" 36 And whenever it stopped, he would say, "Return, Lord , to the thousands of families of Israel."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the cloud of the Lord [was] upon them by day,.... Not only upon the tabernacle, and upon the ark particularly, but it spread itself in journeying over the whole body of the people, and therefore said to be a covering to them from the heat of the sun, Psalms 105:39; as well as it was a guide unto them, and a token of the divine Presence with them, see Isaiah 4:5;

when they went out of the camp; or out of the place of their encampment, when they removed from Sinai; and appears from, hence that it was in the daytime.
