Isaiah 23:18

Isaiah 66:17
Context66:17 “As for those who consecrate and ritually purify themselves so they can follow their leader and worship in the sacred orchards, 4 those who eat the flesh of pigs and other disgusting creatures, like mice 5 – they will all be destroyed together,” 6 says the Lord.


[18:6] 1 tn Heb “they will be left together” (so NASB).
[18:6] 2 tn Heb “the beasts of the earth” (so KJV, NASB).
[23:18] 3 tn Heb “for eating to fullness and for beautiful covering[s].”
[66:17] 5 tn Heb “the ones who consecrate themselves and the ones who purify themselves toward the orchards [or “gardens”] after the one in the midst.” The precise meaning of the statement is unclear, though it is obvious that some form of idolatry is in view.
[66:17] 6 tn Heb “ones who eat the flesh of the pig and the disgusting thing and the mouse.”
