[7:19] 1 tn The Hebrew term can refer to menstrual impurity. The term also occurs at the end of v. 20.
[7:19] 2 sn Compare Zeph 1:18.
[7:19] 3 tn Heb “it.” Apparently the subject is the silver and gold mentioned earlier (see L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 1:102).
[7:19] 4 tn The “stumbling block of their iniquity” is a unique phrase of the prophet Ezekiel (Ezek 14:3, 4, 7; 18:30; 44:12).
[13:9] 5 tn The Hebrew term may refer to the secret council of the
[13:9] 6 tn The reference here is probably to a civil list (as in Ezra 2:16; Neh 7:64) rather than to a “book of life” (Exod 32:32; Isa 4:3; Ps 69:29; Dan 12:1). This registry may have been established at the making of David’s census (2 Sam 24:2, 9).
[14:11] 9 sn I will be their God. See Exod 6:7; Lev 26:12; Jer 7:23; 11:4.
[16:49] 14 tn Heb “strengthen the hand of.”
[18:20] 17 tn Heb “lift up, bear.”
[18:20] 18 tn Heb “lift up, bear.”
[18:20] 19 tn Heb “the righteousness of the righteous one will be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked one will be upon him.”
[21:12] 21 sn This physical action was part of an expression of grief. Cp. Jer. 31:19.
[37:23] 25 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.
[47:9] 29 tn Heb “two rivers,” perhaps under the influence of Zech 14:8. The translation follows the LXX and other ancient versions in reading the singular, which is demanded by the context (see vv. 5-7, 9b, 12).
[47:9] 30 tn Heb “will be healed.”
[47:22] 33 sn A similar attitude toward non-Israelites is found in Isa 56:3-8.
[48:8] 37 tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).
[48:10] 41 tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).
[48:10] 42 tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).
[48:10] 43 tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).
[48:10] 44 tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).
[48:18] 45 tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers); the phrase occurs again later in this verse.
