Numbers 31:50

Ezekiel 16:11
Context16:11 I adorned you with jewelry. I put bracelets on your hands and a necklace around your neck.
[32:3] 1 tn This “all” is a natural hyperbole in the narrative, for it means the large majority of the people.
[31:50] 3 sn The expression here may include the idea of finding protection from divine wrath, which is so common to Leviticus, but it may also be a thank offering for the fact that their lives had been spared.
