| NET Notes |
1 sn Compare the irony here to Amos 4:4 and Jer 44:25. 2 tn Heb “and after, if you will not listen to me.” The translation leaves out “and after” for smoothness. The text is difficult. M. Greenberg (Ezekiel [AB], 1:374) suggests that it may mean “but afterwards, if you will not listen to me…” with an unspoken threat. 3 sn A similar concept may be found in Lev 18:21; 20:3. 4 tn Or “gifts.” |
