NET Notes

²tn Heb “desolations.” The term refers here to the ruined condition of Judah’s towns.

³tn Heb “over which your name is called.” Cf. v. 19. This expression implies that God is the owner of his city, Jerusalem. Note the use of the idiom in 2 Sam 12:28; Isa 4:1; Amos 9:12.

⁴tn Heb “praying our supplications before you.”
