1 tn The Hebrew term refers to sacrificial meat not eaten by the appropriate time (Lev 7:18; 19:7).
2 tn Heb “the stumbling block of their iniquity.” This phrase is unique to the prophet Ezekiel.
3 tn Or “I will not reveal myself to them.” The Hebrew word is used in a technical sense here of seeking an oracle from a prophet (2 Kgs 1:16; 3:11; 8:8).
4 tc So MT, LXX, and Vulgate; many Hebrew mss and Syriac read “Edom.”
5 tn Heb “each one, the detestable things of his eyes, throw away.” The Pentateuch does not refer to the Israelites worshiping idols in Egypt, but Josh 24:14 appears to suggest that they did so.
6 tn Heb “drew my hand back.” This idiom also occurs in Lam 2:8 and Ps 74:11.
7 tn Heb “I did not find.”
8 tn Heb “him”; the referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.
9 tn Heb “one hundred cubits” (i.e., 52.5 meters).
10 tn Heb “three cubits” (i.e., 1.575 meters).
11 tn Heb “two cubits” (i.e., 1.05 meters).
12 tc So the Masoretic text. The LXX reads “base.”
13 tn Heb “to eat bread.”
14 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).
15 tn Heb “I lifted up my hand.”
16 tn Heb “will bear.”
