Ezekiel 9:1

The Execution of Idolaters

9:1 Then he shouted in my ears, “Approach, ¹  you who are to visit destruction on the city, each with his destructive weapon in his hand!”

Ezekiel 47:3

47:3 When the man went out toward the east with a measuring line in his hand, he measured 1,750 feet, ²  and then he led me through water, which was ankle deep.

[9:1]  ¹ tc Heb “they approached.” Reading the imperative assumes the same consonantal text but different vowels.

[47:3]  ² tn Heb “one thousand cubits” (i.e., 525 meters); this phrase occurs three times in the next two verses.
