48:27 Next to the border of Zebulun, from the east side to the west side, Gad will have one portion.

[10:5]  ¹ tn The name (“El Shaddai”) has often been translated “God Almighty,” primarily because Jerome translated it omnipotens (“all powerful”) in the Latin Vulgate. There has been much debate over the meaning of the name. For discussion see W. F. Albright, “The Names Shaddai and Abram,” JBL 54 (1935): 173-210; R. Gordis, “The Biblical Root sdy-sd,” JTS 41 (1940): 34-43; and especially T. N. D. Mettinger, In Search of God, 69-72.

[11:9]  ² tn Heb “its midst.”

[20:37]  ³ tn This is the same Hebrew verb used to describe the passing of the children through the fire.

[20:37]  ⁴ sn The metaphor may be based in Lev 27:32 (see also Jer 33:13; Matt 25:32-33). A shepherd would count his sheep as they passed beneath his staff.

[27:6]  ⁵ tn Or “hull.”

[27:6]  ⁶ tc The Hebrew reads “Your deck they made ivory, daughter of Assyria.” The syntactically difficult “ivory” is understood here as dittography and omitted, though some construe this to refer to ivory inlays. “Daughter of Assyria” is understood here as improper word division and the vowels repointed as “cypresses.”

[27:6]  ⁷ tn Heb “from the coastlands (or islands) of Kittim,” generally understood to be a reference to the island of Cyprus, where the Phoenicians had a trading colony on the southeast coast. Many modern English versions have “Cyprus” (CEV, TEV), “the coastlands of Cyprus” (NASB), “the coasts of Cyprus” (NIV, NRSV), or “the southern coasts of Cyprus” (NLT).

[27:6]  sn The Kittean isles is probably a reference to southeast Cyprus where the Phoenicians had a colony.

[32:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “I will provoke the heart of.”

[36:7]  ⁹ tn Heb “I lifted up my hand.”

[37:18]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “the sons of your people.”

[38:6]  ¹¹ tn The words “they are joined by” are added in the translation for purposes of English style.

[38:6]  ¹² sn The seven-nation coalition represents the north (Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, Beth-Togarmah), the south/west (Ethiopia, Put) and the east (Persia). The use of the sevenfold list suggests completeness. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:441.

[41:13]  ¹³ tn Heb “one hundred cubits” (i.e., 52.5 meters).

[41:13]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “one hundred cubits” (i.e., 52.5 meters).

[43:5]  ¹⁵ tn See note on “wind” in 2:2.

[43:5]  ¹⁶ tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.

[43:5]  ¹⁷ sn In 1 Kgs 8:10-11 we find a similar event with regard to Solomon’s temple. See also Exod 40:34-35. and Isa 6:4.

[47:15]  ¹⁸ sn The measurements resemble those in Num 34:1-2.
