[4:3]  ¹ tn Or “a griddle,” that is, some sort of plate for cooking.

[4:3]  ² tn That is, a symbolic object lesson.

[6:2]  ³ tn Heb “set your face against.” The expression occurs at the beginning of Ezekiel’s prophetic oracles in Ezek 13:17; 20:46; 21:2; 25:2; 28:21; 29:2; 35:2; 38:2.

[13:17]  ⁴ tn Heb “set your face against.”

[13:17]  ⁵ tn Heb “from their heart.”
