tn Heb “the cherub.”

tn The Hebrew text adds, “from among the cherubim.”

sn These verbs, “pity” and “spare,” echo the judgment oracles in 5:11; 7:4, 9; 8:18; 9:5, 10.

sn A similar concept is found in Deut 32:10.

tn Heb “desirable.”

tn Heb “set.”

tn Heb “into the midst of the water.”

tn Or “I challenge you.” The phrase “I am against you” may be a formula for challenging someone to combat or a duel. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 1:201-2, and P. Humbert, “Die Herausforderungsformel ‘h!nn#n' ?l?K>,’” ZAW 45 (1933): 101-8.

sn This may refer to a site in the Egyptian Delta which served as a refuge for Jews (Jer 44:1; 46:14).

10 sn Syene is known today as Aswan.

11 sn In Zeph 1:15 darkness is associated with the day of the Lord.

12 tn Heb “showers of blessing.” Abundant rain, which in turn produces fruit and crops (v. 27), is a covenantal blessing for obedience (Lev 26:4).

13 sn Jeremiah also attested to the reuniting of the northern and southern kingdoms (Jer 3:12, 14; 31:2-6).

14 sn The Hebrew text mentions two different types of shields here.

15 tn Heb “two cubits” (i.e., 1.05 meters).

16 tn Heb “six cubits” (i.e., 3.15 meters).

17 tn Heb “seven cubits” (i.e., 3.675 meters).

18 tn Heb “to desecrate.”

19 tc The Greek, Syriac, and Latin versions read “you.” The Masoretic text reads “they.”

20 sn Tobiah, an Ammonite (Neh 13:8), was dismissed from the temple.

21 tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.

22 tn Heb “the sea,” referring to the Dead Sea. This has been specified in the translation for clarity.

23 tn Heb “to the sea, those which are brought out.” The reading makes no sense. The text is best emended to read “filthy” (i.e., stagnant). See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:273.

24 tn Heb “the waters become healed.”
