¹ tn Heb “took of the seed of the land.” For the vine imagery, “seedling” is a better translation, though in its subsequent interpretation the “seed” refers to Zedekiah through its common application to offspring.

² tn Heb “a field for seed.”

³ tn Or “descendants”; Heb “seed” (cf. v. 5).

⁴ tn Heb “caused him to enter into an oath.”

⁵ sn The messianic king is here called “David” (see Jer 30:9 and Hos 3:5, as well as Isa 11:1 and Mic 5:2) because he will fulfill the Davidic royal ideal depicted in the prophets and royal psalms (see Ps 2, 89).

⁶ tn The Hebrew text adds “the one threshold 10½ feet deep.” This is probably an accidental duplication of what precedes. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:517.

⁷ tn Heb “twenty cubits” (i.e., 10.5 meters).

⁸ tn Heb “twenty cubits” (i.e., 10.5 meters).
