[10:20]  ¹ tn Heb “That was the living creature.”

[13:17]  ² tn Heb “set your face against.”

[13:17]  ³ tn Heb “from their heart.”

[17:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “took of the seed of the land.” For the vine imagery, “seedling” is a better translation, though in its subsequent interpretation the “seed” refers to Zedekiah through its common application to offspring.

[17:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “a field for seed.”

[18:8]  ⁶ sn This law was given in Lev 25:36.

[18:8]  ⁷ tn Heb, “turns back his hand.”

[18:8]  ⁸ tn Heb “justice of truth.”

[22:24]  ⁹ tc The MT reads “that is not cleansed”; the LXX reads “that is not drenched,” which assumes a different vowel pointing as well as the loss of a מ (mem) due to haplography. In light of the following reference to showers, the reading of the LXX certainly fits the context well. For a defense of the emendation, see L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:32. Yet the MT is not an unreasonable reading since uncleanness in the land also fits the context, and a poetic connection between rain and the land being uncleansed may be feasible since washing with water is elsewhere associated with cleansing (Num 8:7; 31:23; Ps 51:7).

[22:24]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “in a day of anger.”

[32:9]  ¹¹ tn Heb “I will provoke the heart of.”

[33:33]  ¹² tn Heb “behold it is coming.”
