Ezekiel 38:16

Ezekiel 43:11

43:11 When they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the design of the temple, its pattern, its exits and entrances, and its whole design – all its statutes, its entire design, and all its laws; write it all down in their sight, so that they may observe its entire design and all its statutes and do them.

[28:3]  ¹ sn Or perhaps “Danel” (so TEV), referring to a ruler known from Canaanite legend. See the note on “Daniel” in 14:14. A reference to Danel (preserved in legend at Ugarit, near the northern end of the Phoenician coast) makes more sense here when addressing Tyre than in 14:14.

[28:3]  ² sn The tone here is sarcastic, reflecting the ruler’s view of himself.

[44:23]  ³ sn This task was a fundamental role of the priest (Lev 10:10).

[20:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “for the sake of my name.”

[20:9]  ⁶ tn Heb “before the eyes of the nations in whose midst they were.”

[20:9]  ⁷ tn Heb “to whom I made myself known before their eyes to bring them out from the land of Egypt.” The translation understands the infinitive construct (“to bring them out”) as indicating manner. God’s deliverance of his people from Egypt was an act of self-revelation in that it displayed his power and his commitment to his promises.

[20:5]  ⁷ tn Heb “I lifted up my hand.”

[20:5]  ⁸ tn Heb “seed.”

[20:5]  ⁹ tn Heb “I lifted up my hand.”

[38:16]  ⁹ tn Heb “come up.”

[38:16]  ¹⁰ tn Or “reveal my holiness.”
