Ezekiel 6:1

Judgment on the Mountains of Israel

6:1 The word of the Lord came to me:

Ezekiel 6:1

Judgment on the Mountains of Israel

6:1 The word of the Lord came to me:

Ezekiel 16:41-43

16:41 They will burn down your houses and execute judgments on you in front of many women. Thus I will put a stop to your prostitution, and you will no longer give gifts to your clients. ⁹  16:42 I will exhaust my rage on you, and then my fury will turn from you. I will calm down and no longer be angry.

16:43 “‘Because you did not remember the days of your youth and have enraged me with all these deeds, I hereby repay you for what you have done, ¹⁰  declares the sovereign Lord. Have you not engaged in prostitution on top of all your other abominable practices?

Ezekiel 25:1

A Prophecy Against Ammon

25:1 The word of the Lord came to me:

Ephesians 5:19

5:19 speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making music ¹¹  in ¹²  your hearts to the Lord,

Colossians 3:16

3:16 Let the word of Christ ¹³  dwell in you richly, teaching and exhorting one another with all wisdom, singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, all with grace ¹⁴  in your hearts to God.

¹ tn Heb “five cubits” (i.e., 2.625 meters) according to the “long” cubit. See the note on the first occurrence of the phrase “10½ feet” in v. 5.

² sn The three alcoves are parallel to the city gates found at Megiddo, Hazor, and Gezer.

³ tn Heb “fifty cubits” (i.e., 26.25 meters).

⁴ tn Heb “twenty-five cubits” (i.e., 13.125 meters).

⁴ sn That is, Jerusalem.

⁵ tn April 19, 573 b.c.

⁶ tn Or “power.”

⁷ sn That is, to the land of Israel (see v. 2).

⁵ tn The words “to your clients” are not in the Hebrew text but are implied.

⁶ tn Heb “your way on (your) head I have placed.”

⁷ tn See BDAG 1096 s.v. ψάλλω.

⁸ tn Or “with.”

⁸ tc Since “the word of Christ” occurs nowhere else in the NT, two predictable variants arose: “word of God” and “word of the Lord.” Even though some of the witnesses for these variants are impressive (κυρίου [kuriou, “of the Lord”] in א* I 1175 pc bo; θεοῦ [qeou, “of God”] in A C* 33 104 323 945 al), the reading Χριστοῦ (Cristou, “of Christ”) is read by an excellent cross-section of witnesses (Ì⁴⁶ א² B C² D F G Ψ 075 1739 1881 Ï lat sa). On both internal and external grounds, Χριστοῦ is strongly preferred.

⁹ tn Grk “with grace”; “all” is supplied as it is implicitly related to all the previous instructions in the verse.
