82:7 Yet you will die like mortals; 1
you will fall like all the other rulers.” 2
1 tn Heb “men.” The point in the context is mortality, however, not maleness.
2 tn Heb “like one of the rulers.” The comparison does not necessarily imply that they are not rulers. The expression “like one of” can sometimes mean “as one of” (Gen 49:16; Obad 11) or “as any other of” (Judg 16:7, 11).
