NET Notes

¹tn Traditionally, “the Lord of hosts.” See the note on the expression “the Lord who commands armies” in 2:13.

²tn Heb “I will uncover your skirts over your face.”

²sn Strip off your clothes. In the ancient Near East, the typical punishment for a prostitute was to strip her of her clothes publicly to expose her to open shame, embarrassment, and public ridicule. Because Nineveh had acted like a prostitute, the Lord would punish her as a prostitute.
