1 tn The Hebrew term is normally used as an architectural term in describing the pattern of the tabernacle or temple or a representation of it (see Exod 25:8; 1 Chr 28:11).
2 tn Or “spirit.” See note on “wind” in 2:2.
3 map For the location of Jerusalem see Map5-B1; Map6-F3; Map7-E2; Map8-F2; Map10-B3; JP1-F4; JP2-F4; JP3-F4; JP4-F4.
4 tn Or “image.”
5 tn Heb “lifted.”
6 tn Or “the ground” (NIV, NCV).
7 tn Heb “to the people of antiquity.”
8 tn Heb “like.” The translation assumes an emendation of the preposition כְּ (kÿ, “like”), to בְּ (bÿ, “in, among”).
9 tn Heb “and I will place beauty.” This reading makes little sense; many, following the lead of the LXX, emend the text to read “nor will you stand” with the negative particle before the preceding verb understood by ellipsis; see L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:73. D. I. Block (Ezekiel [NICOT], 2:47) offers another alternative, taking the apparent first person verb form as an archaic second feminine form and translating “nor radiate splendor.”
10 tc Some Hebrew mss, the Targum, and the LXX read “buried.”
11 tn Heb “and they will not stand to them in their height, all the drinkers of water.”
12 tn Heb “for death, to the lower earth.”
13 tn Heb “the sons of men.”
