NET Notes |
1 tn “Have you seen…” The question is rhetorical and expects a positive answer. 2 tn Heb “she played the prostitute there.” This is a metaphor for Israel’s worship; she gave herself to the worship of other gods like a prostitute gives herself to her lovers. There seems no clear way to completely spell out the metaphor in the translation. |
