Yehezkiel 12:12

Yehezkiel 31:16

31:16 I made the nations shake at the sound of its fall, when I threw it down to Sheol, along with those who descend to the pit. ⁴  Then all the trees of Eden, the choicest and the best of Lebanon, all that were well-watered, were comforted in the earth below.

[12:12]  ¹ sn The prince is a reference to Zedekiah.

[12:12]  ³ tc The MT reads “they”; the LXX and Syriac read “he.”

[31:16]  ⁴ sn For the expression “going down to the pit,” see Ezek 26:20; 32:18, 24, 29.
