| NET Notes |
1 tn Heb “the sons of your people.” 2 tn Heb “in the day of his rebellion.” The statement envisions a godly person rejecting what is good and becoming sinful. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:247-48. 3 tn Heb “and the wickedness of the wicked, he will not stumble in it in the day of his turning from his wickedness.” 4 tn Heb “by it.” 5 tn Heb “in the day of his sin.” |
