[1:13]  ¹ tc The MT reads “and the form of the creatures” (וּדְמוּת הַחַיּוֹת, udÿmut hakhayyot). The LXX reads “and in the midst of the creatures,” suggesting an underlying Hebrew text of וּמִתּוֹךְ הַחַיּוֹת (umittokh hakhayyot). The subsequent description of something moving among the creatures supports the LXX.

[1:13]  ² tc The MT reads “and the form of the creatures – their appearance was like burning coals of fire.” The LXX reads “in the midst of the creatures was a sight like burning coals of fire.” The MT may have adjusted “appearance” to “their appearance” to fit their reading of the beginning of the verse (see the tc note on “in the middle”). See M. Greenberg, Ezekiel (AB), 1:46.

[1:13]  ³ sn Burning coals of fire are also a part of David’s poetic description of God’s appearance (see 2 Sam 22:9, 13; Ps 18:8).

[5:9]  ⁴ tn Or “abominable idols.”

[8:11]  ⁵ sn Note the contrast between these seventy men who represented Israel and the seventy elders who ate the covenant meal before God, inaugurating the covenant relationship (Exod 24:1, 9).

[8:11]  ⁶ tn The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT.

[16:34]  ⁷ tn Heb “With you it was opposite of women in your prostitution.”

[19:11]  ⁸ tn The word “fit” does not occur in the Hebrew text.

[19:11]  ⁹ tn Heb “and it was seen by its height and by the abundance of its branches.”

[20:42]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “I lifted up my hand.”

[23:29]  ¹¹ tn The Hebrew term means “labor,” but by extension it can also refer to that for which one works.

[23:29]  ¹² tn Heb “The nakedness of your prostitution will be exposed, and your obscene conduct and your harlotry.”

[26:4]  ¹³ tn Or “debris.”

[26:12]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “desirable.”

[26:12]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “set.”

[26:12]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “into the midst of the water.”

[31:4]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “Waters made it grow; the deep made it grow tall. It (the deep) was flowing with its rivers around the place it (the tree) was planted, it (the deep) sent out its channels to all the trees of the field.”

[37:1]  ¹⁸ tn Or “power.”

[37:1]  sn Hand in the OT can refer metaphorically to power, authority, or influence. In Ezekiel God’s hand being on the prophet is regularly associated with communication or a vision from God (3:14, 22; 8:1; 37:1; 40:1).

[37:1]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “caused me to rest.”

[40:23]  ²⁰ tn Heb “one hundred cubits” (i.e., 52.5 meters).

[41:22]  ²¹ tn Heb “three cubits” (i.e., 1.575 meters).

[41:22]  ²² tn Heb “two cubits” (i.e., 1.05 meters).

[41:22]  ²³ tc So the Masoretic text. The LXX reads “base.”

[47:3]  ²⁴ tn Heb “one thousand cubits” (i.e., 525 meters); this phrase occurs three times in the next two verses.
