NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “and now my father placed upon you a heavy yoke, but I will add to your yoke.” 2 tn Heb “My father punished you with whips, but I will punish you with scorpions.” “Scorpions” might allude to some type of torture using poisonous insects, but more likely it refers to a type of whip that inflicts an especially biting, painful wound. Cf. CEV “whips with pieces of sharp metal.” |
