Ezekiel 22:11

1 tn Heb “lift up, bear.”
2 tn Heb “a man.”
3 tn The verb is the same one used in verse 10b and suggests forcible sexual violation of the woman.
4 sn Sexual relations with one’s half-sister may be primarily in view here. See Lev 18:9; 20:17.
5 tn Heb “to whom a messenger was sent, and look, they came.” Foreign alliances are in view here.
6 tn The Hebrew verb form is feminine singular, indicating that Oholibah (Judah) is specifically addressed here. This address continues through verse 42a (note “her”), but then both sisters are described in verse 42b, where the feminine pronouns are again plural.
