[16:37]  ¹ sn Harlots suffered degradation when their nakedness was exposed (Jer 13:22, 26; Hos 2:12; Nah 3:5).

[18:19]  ² tn Heb “lift up, bear.”

[20:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “and I said/thought to pour out.”

[20:31]  ⁵ tn Or “gifts.”

[20:31]  ⁶ tn Or “Will I reveal myself to you?”

[20:31]  ⁷ tn Or “I will not reveal myself to you.”

[28:26]  ⁶ sn This promise was given in Lev 25:18-19.

[34:4]  ⁷ tn The term translated “harshness” is used to describe the oppression the Israelites suffered as slaves in Egypt (Exod 1:13).

[34:14]  ⁸ tn Heb “good.”

[37:22]  ⁹ sn Jeremiah also attested to the reuniting of the northern and southern kingdoms (Jer 3:12, 14; 31:2-6).

[37:23]  ¹⁰ tc Heb “their dwellings.” The text as it stands does not make sense. Based on the LXX, a slight emendation of two vowels, including a mater, yields the reading “from their turning,” a reference here to their turning from God and deviating from his commandments. See BDB 1000 s.v. מְשׁוּבָה, and D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:407.
