Ezekiel 20:38

Context
20:38 I will eliminate from among you the rebels and those who revolt 3  against me. I will bring them out from the land where they have been residing, but they will not come to the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

Ezekiel 30:13

30:13 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says:

I will destroy the idols,

and put an end to the gods of Memphis.

There will no longer be a prince from the land of Egypt;

so I will make the land of Egypt fearful. 4 

Ezekiel 31:12

31:12 Foreigners from the most terrifying nations have cut it down and left it to lie there on the mountains. In all the valleys its branches have fallen, and its boughs lie broken in the ravines of the land. All the peoples of the land 5  have departed 6  from its shade and left it.

Ezekiel 34:13

Ezekiel 45:1

Context
The Lord’s Portion of the Land

45:1 “‘When you allot the land as an inheritance, you will offer an allotment 7  to the Lord, a holy portion from the land; the length will be eight and a quarter miles 8  and the width three and one-third miles. 9  This entire area will be holy. 10 

1 tn Or “lawlessness” (NAB); “perversity” (NRSV). The Hebrew word occurs only here in the OT, and its meaning is uncertain. The similar phrase in 7:23 has a common word for “violence.”

2 sn The saying is virtually identical to that of the elders in Ezek 8:12.

3 tn See the note at 2:3.

4 tn Heb “I will put fear in the land of Egypt.”

5 tn Or “earth” (KJV, ASV, NASB, NIV, NRSV).

6 tn Heb “gone down.”

7 tn Heb “a contribution.”

8 tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers). The measuring units here are the Hebrew “long” cubit, consisting of a cubit (about 18 inches or 45 cm) and a handbreadth (about 3 inches or 7.5 cm), for a total of 21 inches (52.5 cm). Because modern readers are not familiar with the cubit as a unit of measurement, and due to the additional complication of the “long” cubit as opposed to the regular cubit, all measurements have been converted to American standard miles (one mile = 5,280 feet), with the Hebrew measurements and the metric equivalents given in the notes.

9 tc The LXX reads “twenty thousand cubits.”

tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).

10 tn Heb “holy it is in all its territory round about.”
