Ezekiel 44:19

[40:44]  ¹ tn “One” is not in the Hebrew text but is supplied for clarity in the translation.

[40:44]  ² tc This reading is supported by the LXX; the MT reads “east.”

[44:19]  ³ sn For a similar concept of the transmitting of holiness, see Exod 19:12-14; Lev 10:1-2; 2 Sam 6:7. Similar laws concerning the priest are found in Lev 10 and 21.

[46:19]  ⁵ tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.
