when he makes plans to destroy?

Where is the anger of the oppressor? 21

[42:11]  1 sn See Jer 41:18 for their reason for fear.

[42:11]  2 tn Heb “oracle of the Lord.”

[42:16]  3 tn Or “will follow you right into Egypt,” or “will dog your steps all the way to Egypt”; Heb “cling after.” This is the only case of this verb with this preposition in the Qal stem. However, it is used with this preposition several times in the Hiphil, all with the meaning of “to pursue closely.” See BDB 180 s.v. דָּבַק Hiph.2 and compare Judg 20:45; 1 Sam 14:22; 1 Chr 10:2.

[42:16]  4 tn The repetition of the adverb “there” in the translation of vv. 14, 16 is to draw attention to the rhetorical emphasis on the locale of Egypt in the original text of both v. 14 and v. 16. In v. 14 they say, “to the land of Egypt we will go…and there we will live.” In v. 16 God says, “wars…there will catch up with you…the hunger…there will follow after you…and there you will die.” God rhetorically denies their focus on Egypt as a place of safety and of relative prosperity. That can only be found in Judah under the protective presence of the Lord (vv. 10-12).

[43:2]  5 sn See the study note on 42:1 for the possible identification of this man with Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite.

[43:3]  6 tn Or “is inciting you against us.”

[43:3]  7 tn Heb “in order to give us into the hands of the Chaldeans.” The substitution “he wants to” as the equivalent of the purpose clause has been chosen to shorten the sentence to better conform with contemporary English style.

[43:3]  8 tn Heb “Chaldeans.” See the study note on 21:4 for explanation.

[43:2]  9 sn See the study note on 42:1 for the possible identification of this man with Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite.

[25:25]  10 sn The kingdom of Zimri is mentioned nowhere else, so its location is unknown.

[25:25]  11 sn See further Jer 49:34-39 for judgment against Elam.

[25:25]  12 sn Elam and Media were east of Babylon; Elam in the south and Media in the north. They were in what is now western Iran.

[30:17]  13 tn Heb “One thousand from before [or “because of”] one battle cry.” גְּעָרָה (gÿarah) is often defined as “threat,” but in war contexts it likely refers to a shout or battle cry. See Ps 76:6.

[30:17]  14 tn Heb “from before [or “because of”] the battle cry of five you will flee.

[30:17]  15 tn Heb “until you are left” (so NAB, NASB, NRSV).

[51:12]  16 tc The plural suffix should probably be emended to the second masculine singular (which is used in v. 13). The final mem (ם) is probably dittographic; note the mem at the beginning of the next word.

[51:12]  17 tn Heb “Who are you that you are afraid of man who dies, and of the son of man who [as] grass is given up?” The feminine singular forms should probably be emended to the masculine singular (see v. 13). They have probably been influenced by the construction אַתְּ־הִיא (’at-hi’) in vv. 9-10.

[51:13]  18 tn Heb “and that you forget.”

[51:13]  19 tn Or “the heavens” (also in v. 16). The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heavens” or “sky” depending on the context.

[51:13]  20 tn Heb “and that you tremble constantly all the day.”

[51:13]  21 tn The question anticipates the answer, “Ready to disappear!” See v. 14.

[57:11]  22 tn Heb “you do not place [it] on your heart.”

[57:11]  23 tn Heb “Is it not [because] I have been silent, and from long ago?”

[57:11]  24 sn God’s patience with sinful Israel has caused them to think that they can sin with impunity and suffer no consequences.

[12:4]  25 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.

[12:4]  26 sn Judaism had a similar exhortation in 4 Macc 13:14-15.

[12:5]  27 tn Grk “will show,” but in this reflective context such a demonstration is a warning or exhortation.

[12:5]  28 sn The actual performer of the killing is not here specified. It could be understood to be God (so NASB, NRSV) but it could simply emphasize that, after a killing has taken place, it is God who casts the person into hell.

[12:5]  29 tn The direct object (“you”) is understood.

[12:5]  30 sn The word translated hell is “Gehenna” (γέεννα, geenna), a Greek transliteration of the Hebrew words ge hinnom (“Valley of Hinnom”). This was the valley along the south side of Jerusalem. In OT times it was used for human sacrifices to the pagan god Molech (cf. Jer 7:31; 19:5-6; 32:35), and it came to be used as a place where human excrement and rubbish were disposed of and burned. In the intertestamental period, it came to be used symbolically as the place of divine punishment (cf. 1 En. 27:2, 90:26; 4 Ezra 7:36).
