NET © Notes |
1 tn Heb “Yahweh of armies, the God Israel.” sn Compare the use of similar titles in 2:19; 5:14; 6:6 and see the explanation in the study note at 2:19. In this instance the title appears to emphasize the 2 tn Or “Make good your ways and your actions.” J. Bright’s translation (“Reform the whole pattern of your conduct”; Jeremiah [AB], 52) is excellent. 3 tn Heb “place” but this might be misunderstood to refer to the temple. |
