Ezekiel 1:27

1:27 I saw an amber glow ¹  like a fire enclosed all around ²  from his waist up. From his waist down I saw something that looked like fire. There was a brilliant light around it,

Ezekiel 14:13

14:13 “Son of man, suppose a country sins against me by being unfaithful, and I stretch out my hand against it, cut off its bread supply, ³  cause famine to come on it, and kill both people and animals.

Ezekiel 16:49

16:49 “‘See here – this was the iniquity ⁴  of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters had majesty, abundance of food, and enjoyed carefree ease, but they did not help ⁵  the poor and needy.

Ezekiel 32:25

32:25 Among the dead they have made a bed for her, along with all her hordes around her grave. ⁶  All of them are uncircumcised, killed by the sword, for their terror had spread in the land of the living. They bear their shame along with those who descend to the pit; they are placed among the dead.

Ezekiel 43:17

43:17 The ledge is 24½ feet ⁷  long and 24½ feet wide on four sides; the border around it is 10½ inches, ⁸  and its surrounding base 1¾ feet. ⁹  Its steps face east.”

[1:27]  ¹ tn See Ezek 1:4.

[1:27]  ² tc The LXX lacks this phrase. Its absence from the LXX may be explained as a case of haplography resulting from homoioteleuton, skipping from כְּמַרְאֵה (kÿmar’eh) to מִמַּרְאֵה (mimmar’eh). On the other hand, the LXX presents a much more balanced verse structure when it is recognized that the final words of this verse belong in the next sentence.

[14:13]  ³ tn Heb “break its staff of bread.”

[16:49]  ⁵ tn Or “guilt.”

[16:49]  ⁶ tn Heb “strengthen the hand of.”

[32:25]  ⁷ tn Heb “around him her graves,” but the expression is best emended to read “around her grave” (see vv. 23-24).

[43:17]  ⁹ tn Heb “fourteen”; the word “cubits” is not in the Hebrew text but is understood from the context; the phrase occurs again later in this verse. Fourteen cubits is about 7.35 meters.

[43:17]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “half a cubit” (i.e., 26.25 cm).

[43:17]  ¹¹ tn Heb “one cubit” (i.e., 52.5 cm).
