Yehezkiel 20:9

[98:2]  ¹ tn Heb “makes known his deliverance.”

[98:3]  ² tn Heb “he remembers his loyal love and his faithfulness to the house of Israel.”

[98:3]  ³ tn Heb “the deliverance of our God,” with “God” being a subjective genitive (= God delivers).

[20:9]  ⁴ tn Heb “for the sake of my name.”

[20:9]  ⁵ tn Heb “before the eyes of the nations in whose midst they were.”

[20:9]  ⁶ tn Heb “to whom I made myself known before their eyes to bring them out from the land of Egypt.” The translation understands the infinitive construct (“to bring them out”) as indicating manner. God’s deliverance of his people from Egypt was an act of self-revelation in that it displayed his power and his commitment to his promises.

[20:22]  ⁷ tn Heb “drew my hand back.” This idiom also occurs in Lam 2:8 and Ps 74:11.
