NET Notes

1 tn The other occurrences of the phrase “the hand of the Lord” in Ezekiel are in the context of prophetic visions.

2 tn Heb “he”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “by the time of the arrival to me.” For clarity the translation specifies the refugee as the one who arrived.

4 sn Ezekiel’s God-imposed muteness was lifted (see 3:26).
