1 sn Even though the infinitive absolute is used to emphasize the warning, the warning is still implicitly conditional, as the following context makes clear.
2 tn Or “in his punishment.” The phrase “in/for [a person’s] iniquity” occurs fourteen times in Ezekiel: here and v. 19; 4:17; 7:13, 16; 18: 17, 18, 19, 20; 24:23; 33:6, 8, 9; 39:23. The Hebrew word for “iniquity” may also mean the “punishment for iniquity.”
3 tn Heb “his blood I will seek from your hand.” The expression “seek blood from the hand” is equivalent to requiring the death penalty (2 Sam 4:11-12).
4 tn Heb “in accordance with the multitude of his idols.”
5 tn The lion was a figure of royalty (Ezek 19:1-9).
6 tc The Hebrew reads “their streams”; the LXX reads “your streams.”
7 tn Heb “I will place them on it, that is, on the stick of Judah.”
8 sn The reunification of Israel and Judah is envisioned as well in Ezek 33:23, 29; Jer 3:18; 23:5-6; Hos 1:11; Amos 9:11.
9 tc The LXX apparently understood “open land” instead of “sanctuary.”
10 tn Heb “he shall shut the gate after he goes out.”
