[23:5]  1 tn Heb “while she was under me.” The expression indicates that Oholah is viewed as the Lord’s wife. See Num 5:19-20, 29.

[23:5]  2 tn Heb “Assyria.”

[23:5]  3 tn The term apparently refers to Assyrian military officers; it is better construed with the description that follows. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 1:738.

[23:9]  1 tn Heb “I gave her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the sons of Assyria.”

[32:22]  1 tn Heb “around him his graves.” The masculine pronominal suffixes are problematic; the expression is best emended to correspond to the phrase “around her grave” in v. 23. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:219.

[32:22]  2 tn Heb “all of them slain, the ones felled by the sword.” See as well vv. 23-24.
