1 sn By referring to every high hill…all the mountaintops…under every green tree and every leafy oak Ezekiel may be expanding on the phraseology of Deut 12:2 (see 1 Kgs 14:23; 2 Kgs 16:4; 17:10; Jer 2:20; 3:6, 13; 2 Chr 28:4).
2 tn Heb “your way on (your) head I have placed.”
3 tn Heb “because of them he will die.”
4 tn Heb “your repairers of damage.” See v. 9.
5 tn Or “earth” (KJV, ASV, NASB, NIV, NRSV).
6 tn Heb “gone down.”
7 sn For the expression “going down to the pit,” see Ezek 26:20; 32:18, 24, 29.
8 tn Or “cause.”
9 tn Heb “live.”
10 tn Or “cause.”
11 tn Heb “the beasts of the field,” referring to wild as opposed to domesticated animals.
12 tn Heb “around him her graves,” but the expression is best emended to read “around her grave” (see vv. 23-24).
13 tc Heb “their dwellings.” The text as it stands does not make sense. Based on the LXX, a slight emendation of two vowels, including a mater, yields the reading “from their turning,” a reference here to their turning from God and deviating from his commandments. See BDB 1000 s.v. מְשׁוּבָה, and D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:407.
14 tn Or “tremble.”
15 tn The term occurs only here and in Song of Songs 2:14.
