Ezekiel 6:9

6:9 Then your survivors will remember me among the nations where they are exiled.

This is what will happen to Pharaoh and all his hordes, declares the sovereign Lord.’”

Ezekiel 32:30

[6:6]  ¹ tn The Hebrew verb translated “wiped out” is used to describe the judgment of the Flood (Gen 6:7; 7:4, 23).

[6:9]  ² tn The words “they will realize” are not in the Hebrew text; they are added here for stylistic reasons since this clause assumes the previous verb “to remember” or “to take into account.”

[6:9]  ³ tn Heb “how I was broken by their adulterous heart.” The image of God being “broken” is startling, but perfectly natural within the metaphorical framework of God as offended husband. The idiom must refer to the intense grief that Israel’s unfaithfulness caused God. For a discussion of the syntax and semantics of the Hebrew text, see M. Greenberg, Ezekiel (AB), 1:134.

[6:9]  ⁴ tn Heb adds “in their faces.”

[7:27]  ³ tn Heb “and by their judgments.”

[13:19]  ⁴ tn Heb “human lives” or “souls.”

[18:24]  ⁵ tn Heb “because of them he will die.”

[32:27]  ⁶ tc Heb “of the uncircumcised.” The LXX reads, probably correctly, “from of old” rather than “of the uncircumcised.” The phrases are very similar in spelling. The warriors of Meshech-Tubal are described as uncircumcised, so it would be odd for them to not be buried with the uncircumcised. Verse 28 specifically says that they would lie with the uncircumcised.

[32:27]  ⁷ tn Heb “and their iniquities were over their bones.” The meaning of this statement is unclear; in light of the parallelism (see “swords”) it is preferable to emend “their iniquities” to “their swords.” See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:135.

[33:30]  ⁷ tn Heb “sons of your people.”

[33:30]  ⁸ tn Heb “one to one, a man to his brother.”

[33:30]  ⁹ tn Heb “comes out.”

[37:23]  ⁸ 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.

[47:12]  ⁹ sn See Rev 22:1-2.

[47:22]  ¹⁰ sn A similar attitude toward non-Israelites is found in Isa 56:3-8.

[48:13]  ¹¹ tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).

[48:13]  ¹² tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).

[48:13]  ¹³ tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).

[48:13]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).
