NETBible

“So, once more I will state my case¹ against you,” says the Lord. “I will also state it against your children and grandchildren.²

NET Notes

¹tn Or “bring charges against you.”

¹sn The language used here is that of the law court. In international political contexts it was the language of a great king charging his subject with breach of covenant. See for examples in earlier prophets, Isa 1:2-20; Mic 6:1-8.

²tn The words “your children and” are supplied in the translation to bring out the idea of corporate solidarity implicit in the passage.

²sn The passage reflects the Hebrew concept of corporate solidarity: The actions of parents had consequences for their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Compare the usage in the ten commandments, Deut 5:10, and note the execution of the children of Dathan and Abiram, Deut 11:6, and of Achan, Josh 7:24-25.
