[26:13]  ¹ tn Heb “cause to end.”

[30:10]  ² tn Heb “Nebuchadrezzar” is a variant and more correct spelling of Nebuchadnezzar, as the Babylonian name Nabu-kudurri-usur has an “r” rather than an “n.”

[30:15]  ³ tn Heb “Sin” (so KJV, NASB), a city commonly identified with Pelusium, a fortress on Egypt’s northeastern frontier.

[30:15]  ⁴ tn Or “kill.”

[32:18]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew verb is used as a response to death (Jer 9:17-19; Amos 5:16).

[32:18]  ⁵ sn Through this prophetic lament given by God himself, the prophet activates the judgment described therein. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:217, and L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:136-37.

[32:18]  ⁶ tn Heb “Bring him down, her and the daughters of the powerful nations, to the earth below.” The verb “bring down” appears in the Hebrew text only once. Because the verb takes several objects here, the repetition of the verb in the translation improves the English style.

[32:18]  ⁷ tn This apparently refers to personified Egypt.

[39:15]  ⁵ tn Heb “as the scouts scout.”

[39:15]  ⁶ tn That is, the aforementioned bone.

[23:42]  ⁶ tn Heb “(was) in her.”

[23:42]  ⁷ tn Heb “and men from the multitude of mankind.”

[23:42]  ⁸ tn An alternate reading is “drunkards.” Sheba is located in the area of modern day Yemen.

[23:42]  ⁹ tn Heb “they”; the referents (the sisters) have been specified in the translation for the sake of clarity.

[39:11]  ⁷ tn The name means “horde of Gog.”
