1 sn This physical action was part of an expression of grief. Cp. Jer. 31:19.
2 tn The Hebrew verb is used as a response to death (Jer 9:17-19; Amos 5:16).
3 sn Through this prophetic lament given by God himself, the prophet activates the judgment described therein. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:217, and L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:136-37.
4 tn Heb “Bring him down, her and the daughters of the powerful nations, to the earth below.” The verb “bring down” appears in the Hebrew text only once. Because the verb takes several objects here, the repetition of the verb in the translation improves the English style.
5 tn This apparently refers to personified Egypt.
6 tn Heb “around him her graves,” but the expression is best emended to read “around her grave” (see vv. 23-24).
7 tn The Hebrew root occurs only here in the OT. An apparent cognate in the Ethiopic language means “walk along.” For a discussion of the research on this verb, see D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:460.
