[3:21]  ¹ tn Heb “the righteous man.”

[4:12]  ² sn Human waste was to remain outside the camp of the Israelites according to Deut 23:15.

[7:3]  ³ tn Or “punish” (cf. BDB 1047 s.v. שָׁפַט 3.c).

[7:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “ways.”

[7:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “I will place on you.”

[7:4]  ⁶ tn The meaning of the Hebrew term is primarily emotional: “to pity,” which in context implies an action, as in being moved by pity in order to spare them from the horror of their punishment.

[7:4]  ⁷ tn The pronoun “you” is not in the Hebrew text, but is implied.

[7:4]  ⁸ tn “I will set your behavior on your head.”

In the latter passage it refers to the bluntness of an ax that has not been sharpened. Here the idea is of the “bluntness” of the teeth, not from having ground them down due to the bitter taste of sour grapes but to the fact that they have lost their “edge,” “bite,” or “sharpness” because they are numb from the sour taste. For this meaning for the word, see W. L. Holladay, Jeremiah (Hermeneia), 2:197.
