[27:7]  ¹ sn This is probably a reference to Cyprus.

[40:5]  ² tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.

[40:5]  ³ tn Heb “house.”

[40:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “a measuring stick of six cubits, [each] a cubit and a handbreadth.” The measuring units here and in the remainder of this section 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). Therefore the measuring stick in the man’s hand was 10.5 feet (3.15 meters) long. 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 feet and inches, with the Hebrew measurements and the metric equivalents given in the notes.

[40:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “building.”

[40:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “one cubit” (i.e., 52.5 cm).

[40:12]  ⁸ tn Heb “six cubits” (i.e., 3.15 meters).

[41:3]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “two cubits” (i.e., 1.05 meters).

[41:3]  ¹¹ tn Heb “six cubits” (i.e., 3.15 meters).

[41:3]  ¹² tn Heb “seven cubits” (i.e., 3.675 meters).

[41:5]  ¹³ tn Heb “house” throughout Ezek 41.
