1 tn Heb “all flesh” (also in the following verse).
2 tn Heb “Negev.” The Negev is the south country.
3 tn The expression introduces the three major visions of Ezekiel (1:1; 8:3; 40:2).
4 tn The reference to a very high mountain is harmonious with Isa 2:2.
5 tn Heb “five cubits” (i.e., 2.625 meters).
6 tc The MT apparently evidences dittography, repeating most of the last word of the previous verse: “and like the openings of.”
7 tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.
8 tn Heb “two hundred fifty cubits” (i.e., 131.25 meters); the phrase occurs three more times in this verse.
9 tn Traditionally “the Brook of Egypt,” although a number of recent translations have “the Wadi of Egypt” (cf. NAB, NIV, NRSV). The word “Egypt” is not in the Hebrew text, but is implied.
