Commentary -- Verse Notes / Footnotes

NET Notes: Eze 21:29

¹ tn Heb “in the seeing concerning you falsehood, in divining concerning you a lie.” This probably refers to the attempts of the Ammonites to ward off judgment through prophetic visions and divination.

² tn Heb “you”; the referent (the sword mentioned in v. 28) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ sn The second half of the verse appears to state that the sword of judgment would fall upon the wicked, despite their efforts to prevent it.
