NET Notes

¹tn Or “with your scepter” (the Hebrew term can mean either “rod” or “scepter”).

²tn Heb “the flock of your inheritance.”

³tn Or “in the midst of Carmel.” The Hebrew term translated “pastureland” may be a place name.

³sn The point seems to be that Israel is in a vulnerable position, like sheep in a thicket populated by predators, while rich pastureland (their homeland and God’s blessings) is in view.

⁴sn The regions of Bashan and Gilead, located in Transjordan, were noted for their rich grazing lands.

⁵tn Heb “as in the days of antiquity.”
