Yehezkiel 5:13

5:13 Then my anger will be fully vented; I will exhaust my rage on them, and I will be appeased. ¹  Then they will know that I, the Lord, have spoken in my jealousy ²  when I have fully vented my rage against them.

Yehezkiel 8:3

8:3 He stretched out the form ³  of a hand and grabbed me by a lock of hair on my head. Then a wind ⁴  lifted me up between the earth and sky and brought me to Jerusalem ⁵  by means of divine visions, to the door of the inner gate which faces north where the statue ⁶  which provokes to jealousy was located.

Yehezkiel 23:25

23:25 I will direct ⁷  my jealous anger against you, and they will deal with you in rage. They will cut off your nose and your ears, ⁸  and your survivors will die ⁹  by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your survivors will be consumed by fire.

Yehezkiel 36:5

36:5 therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: Surely I have spoken in the fire of my zeal against the rest of the nations, and against all Edom, who with great joy and utter contempt have made my land their property and prey, because of its pasture.’

[5:13]  ¹ tn Or “calm myself.”

[5:13]  ² tn The Hebrew noun translated “jealousy” is used in the human realm to describe suspicion of adultery (Num 5:14ff.; Prov 6:34). Since Israel’s relationship with God was often compared to a marriage this term is appropriate here. The term occurs elsewhere in Ezekiel in 8:3, 5; 16:38, 42; 23:25.

[8:3]  ³ tn The Hebrew term is normally used as an architectural term in describing the pattern of the tabernacle or temple or a representation of it (see Exod 25:8; 1 Chr 28:11).

[8:3]  ⁴ tn Or “spirit.” See note on “wind” in 2:2.
