1 tc Heb “each had two wings covering and each had two wings covering,” a case of dittography. On the analogy of v. 11 and the support of the LXX, which reads the same for v. 11 and this verse, one should perhaps read “each had two wings touching another being and each had two wings covering.”
2 tn Heb “you will not be to them a reprover.” In Isa 29:21 and Amos 5:10 “a reprover” issued rebuke at the city gate.
3 sn This law was given in Lev 25:36.
4 tn Heb, “turns back his hand.”
5 tn Heb “justice of truth.”
4 tn The Hebrew text has no preposition; the LXX reads “from” (see v. 17).
