Contextual Overview

29 Then Moses said to Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, "We are going to the place the Lord said He will give to us. Come with us and we will do you good. For the Lord has promised good to Israel." 30 But Hobab said to him, "I will not come. I will go to my own land and family." 31 Moses said, "I beg you, do not leave us. For you know where we should stay in the desert. You will be like eyes for us. 32 If you go with us, we will do for you whatever good the Lord does for us." 33 So they traveled for three days from the mountain of the Lord with the special box with the Law of the Lord in front of them looking for a place for them to rest. 34 The cloud of the Lord was over them during the day, when they moved on. 35 When the special box of the Lord moved on, Moses said, "Rise up, O Lord! Let those who hate You be divided. Let those who hate You run away before You." 36 And when it rested, he said, "Return, O Lord, to the many thousands 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.
