Ezekiel 5:3

5:3 But take a few strands of hair ¹  from those and tie them in the ends of your garment. ² 

Ezekiel 16:21

16:21 you slaughtered my children and sacrificed them to the idols. ³ 

¹ tn Heb “from there a few in number.” The word “strands” has been supplied in the translation for clarification.

² sn Objects could be carried in the end of a garment (Hag 2:12).

³ tn Heb “and you gave them, by passing them through to them.” Some believe this alludes to the pagan practice of making children pass through the fire.
