[8:6]  1 tn Heb “house.”

[8:12]  2 tn Heb “the room of his images.” The adjective “idolatrous” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[8:2]  3 tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb (so also throughout the chapter).

[8:2]  4 tc The MT reads “fire” rather than “man,” the reading of the LXX. The nouns are very similar in Hebrew.

[8:2]  5 tc The MT reads “what appeared to be his waist and downwards was fire.” The LXX omits “what appeared to be,” reading “from his waist to below was fire.” Suggesting that “like what appeared to be” belongs before “fire,” D. I. Block (Ezekiel [NICOT], 1:277) points out the resulting poetic symmetry of form with the next line as followed in the translation here.

[8:2]  6 tc The LXX omits “like a brightness.”

[8:2]  7 tn See Ezek 1:4.
