1 tc The LXX reads “In the sixth year, in the fifth month, on the fifth of the month.”

sn In the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth of the month would be September 17, 592 b.c., about fourteen months after the initial vision.

2 tn Or “power.”

sn Hand in the OT can refer metaphorically to power, authority, or influence. In Ezekiel God’s hand being on the prophet is regularly associated with communication or a vision from God (3:14, 22; 8:1; 37:1; 40:1).

3 tn Heb “fell upon me there,” that is, God’s influence came over him.

4 tn Heb “house.”

5 tn Heb “fell.”

6 tn The Hebrew verb commonly means “to say,” but may also mean “to think” (see also v. 3).

7 tn Heb “I know the steps of your spirits.”

8 tn Heb “and you cast me behind your back.” The expression pictures her rejection of the Lord (see 1 Kgs 14:9).

9 tn The word “punishment” is not in the Hebrew text but is demanded by the context.

10 tn The expression introduces the three major visions of Ezekiel (1:1; 8:3; 40:2).

11 tn The reference to a very high mountain is harmonious with Isa 2:2.

12 tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.

13 tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.
