Ezekiel 20:46

Context
20:46 “Son of man, turn toward 1  the south, 2  and speak out against the south. 3  Prophesy against the open scrub 4  land of the Negev,

1 tn Heb “set your face toward.” This expression occurs as well in Ezek 6:2; 13:17.

2 tn Or “the way toward the south,” or “the way toward Teman.” Teman is in the south and may be a location or the direction.

3 tn Or “toward Darom.” Darom may mean the south or a region just north of southern city of Beer Sheba. See M. Greenberg, Ezekiel (AB), 2:417-18.

4 tn The Hebrew term can also mean “forest,” but a meaning of uncultivated wasteland fits the Negev region far better. See M. Greenberg, Ezekiel (AB), 2:418.
