NET Notes

¹sn Note how contemporary Israel is again identified with her early ancestors. See the study note on 2:2.

²tn Heb “eat.”

³sn I.e., made it ceremonially unclean. See Lev 18:19-30; Num 35:34; Deut 21:23.

⁴tn Heb “my inheritance.” Or “the land [i.e., inheritance] I gave you,” reading the pronoun as indicating source rather than possession. The parallelism and the common use in Jeremiah of the term to refer to the land or people as the Lord’s (e.g., 12:7, 8, 9; 16:18; 50:11) make the possessive use more likely here.

⁴sn The land belonged to the Lord; it was given to the Israelites in trust (or usufruct) as their heritage. See Lev 25:23.
