Exodus 12:3 בֶּעָשֹׂ֖ר on the ten

Tell the whole congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man must select a lamb for his family, one per household.

Here: "On the tenth," a calendar date. The Hebrew does not need the word "day", which English adds. The date is placed first for emphasis, so it opens the message.

Leviticus 16:29 בֶּֽעָשׂ֨וֹר on the ten

This is to be a permanent statute for you: On the tenth day of the seventh month, you shall humble yourselves and not do any work—whether the native or the foreigner who resides among you—

Leviticus 23:27 בֶּעָשׂ֣וֹר on the ten

“The tenth day of this seventh month is the Day of Atonement. You shall hold a sacred assembly and humble yourselves, and present a food offering to the LORD.

Here: 'On the tenth (day)'. The noun means 'a group of ten' and here serves as the date. The tenth day was already significant: the Passover lamb was chosen on the tenth of the first month (Exod 12:3).

Leviticus 25:9 בֶּעָשׂ֖וֹר on the ten

Then you are to sound the horn far and wide on the tenth day of the seventh month, the Day of Atonement. You shall sound it throughout your land.

Numbers 29:7 וּבֶעָשׂוֹר֩ and on the ten

On the tenth day of this seventh month, you are to hold a sacred assembly, and you shall humble yourselves; you must not do any work.

Here: 'And on the tenth': the word is a counting noun ('a set of ten'), used in calendar texts for the tenth day of a month. The opening 'and' links this day to the list of feasts in the month that began in 29:1.

Joshua 4:19 בֶּעָשׂ֖וֹר on the ten

On the tenth day of the first month the people went up from the Jordan and camped at Gilgal on the eastern border of Jericho.

Here: A noun meaning "a tenth / group of ten", used for the tenth day of a month, as in Exodus 12:3 and Leviticus 16:29. Tenth day of the tenth month: a date that sticks in the memory, and later a fast day.

Psalm 33:2 עָ֝שׂ֗וֹר ten

Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings.

Here: 'Ten.' Joined to nevel it most naturally describes it: 'a harp of ten [strings].' The word 'strings' is not in the Hebrew. Elsewhere ʿasor also means 'the tenth day' of a month (Exod 12:3).

Psalm 92:3 עָ֭שׂוֹר a ten

with the ten-stringed harp and the melody of the lyre.

Psalm 144:9 עָ֝שׂ֗וֹר ten

I will sing to You a new song, O God; on a harp of ten strings I will make music to You—

Here: Literally "ten" or "a ten." The word "strings" is not in the Hebrew but is clearly understood: "a harp of ten (strings)." The same phrase appears in Psalm 33:2. Elsewhere the word can mean "the tenth day" of a month.

Jeremiah 52:4 בֶּעָשׂ֣וֹר on the ten

So in the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his entire army. They encamped outside the city and built a siege wall all around it.

In the seventh year, on the tenth day of the fifth month, some of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the LORD, and they sat down before me.

Here: 'On the tenth [day]'. This form, rather than the ordinary word for 'tenth', is used in formal dates, for example the Day of Atonement 'on the tenth of the month' (Leviticus 16:29). Ezekiel uses it again at 24:1 and 40:1.

Ezekiel 24:1 בֶּעָשׂ֥וֹר on the ten

In the ninth year, on the tenth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

Ezekiel 40:1 בֶּעָשׂ֣וֹר on the ten

Here: "On the tenth." This is the wording of the festival laws: the tenth of the first month for choosing the Passover lamb (Exod 12:3), and the tenth of the seventh month for the Day of Atonement and the jubilee trumpet (Lev 23:27; 25:9).
