[7:25]  ¹ tn The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT. It is interpreted based on a Syriac cognate meaning “to bristle or stiffen (in terror).”

[9:9]  ² tn Or “lawlessness” (NAB); “perversity” (NRSV). The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT, and its meaning is uncertain. The similar phrase in 7:23 has a common word for “violence.”

[9:9]  ³ sn The saying is virtually identical to that of the elders in Ezek 8:12.

[10:8]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew term is normally used as an architectural term in describing the plan or pattern of the tabernacle or temple or a representation of it (see Exod 25:8; 1 Chr 28:11).

[12:23]  ⁵ tn Heb “the days draw near and the word of every vision (draws near).”

[22:6]  ⁶ tn Heb “Look! The princes of Israel, each according to his arm, were in you in order to shed blood.”

[28:3]  ⁷ sn Or perhaps “Danel” (so TEV), referring to a ruler known from Canaanite legend. See the note on “Daniel” in 14:14. A reference to Danel (preserved in legend at Ugarit, near the northern end of the Phoenician coast) makes more sense here when addressing Tyre than in 14:14.

[28:3]  ⁸ sn The tone here is sarcastic, reflecting the ruler’s view of himself.

[36:2]  ⁹ tn Or “high places.”

[44:12]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “a stumbling block of iniquity.” This is a unique phrase of the prophet Ezekiel (cf. also Ezek 7:19; 14:3, 4, 7; 18:30).

[44:12]  ¹¹ tn Heb “I lifted up my hand.”

[44:12]  ¹² tn Heb “will bear.”
