### sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: "Hinder" is also an old word meaning back or rear, as in "the hinder part of the tabernacle." Job and Jeremiah also use it as a verb meaning to stop someone, as in "who can hinder Him?" Interpretation: The tabernacle's back, the west side, was built with six boards. Tradition studies the exact measurements as a sacred plan given to Moses. Job's question is read as showing that no one can stop God. In the primary lessons: a fallen tree, a rule or a bad path that stops or slows a journey
