Ezekiel 44:20
Context44:20 “‘They must not shave their heads 13 nor let their hair grow long; 14 they must only trim their heads.
1 tn Heb “not in vain did I speak to do to them this catastrophe.” The wording of the last half of v. 10 parallels God’s declaration after the sin of the golden calf (Exod 32:14).
2 tn Heb “Chaldea.” The name of the tribal group ruling Babylon (“Chaldeans”) and the territory from which they originated (“Chaldea”) is used as metonymy for the whole empire of Babylon.
3 tn This expression occurs often in Ezekiel (5:11; 14:16, 18, 20; 16:48; 17:16, 19; 20:3, 31, 33; 33:11, 27; 34:8; 35:6, 11).
4 sn This law was given in Lev 25:36.
5 tn Heb, “turns back his hand.”
6 tn Heb “justice of truth.”
7 tn Heb “he saw.”
8 tn Heb “(with) toil she has wearied.” The meaning of the statement is unclear in the Hebrew text; some follow the LXX and delete it. The first word in the statement (rendered “toil” in the literal translation above) occurs only here in the OT, and the verb “she has wearied” lacks a stated object. Elsewhere the Hiphil of the verb refers to wearying someone or trying someone’s patience. The feminine subject is apparently the symbolic pot.
9 tn Heb “does not go out.”
10 tn Heb “in fire its rust.” The meaning of the expression is unclear. The translation understands the statement as a command to burn the rust away. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 1:768.
12 tn Heb “I will provoke the heart of.”
13 sn The shaving of the head was associated with mourning (Ezek 7:18).
14 sn Letting the hair grow was associated with the taking of a vow (Num 6:5; Acts 21:23-26).
