[8:3]  ¹ 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]  ² tn Or “spirit.” See note on “wind” in 2:2.

[13:18]  ⁸ tn Heb “joints of the hands.” This may include the elbow and shoulder joints.

[13:18]  ⁹ tn The Hebrew term occurs in the Bible only here and in v. 21. It has also been understood as a veil or type of head covering. D. I. Block (Ezekiel [NICOT], 1:414) suggests that given the context of magical devices, the expected parallel to the magical arm bands, and the meaning of this Hebrew root (סָפַח [safakh, “to attach” or “join”]), it may refer to headbands or necklaces on which magical amulets were worn.

[13:18]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “human lives” or “souls” (three times in v. 18 and twice in v. 19).

[25:9]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “from the cities.” The verb “eliminating” has been added in the translation to reflect the privative use of the preposition (see BDB 583 s.v. מִן 7.b).

[25:9]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “from its cities, from its end.”

[40:48]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “five cubits” (i.e., 2.625 meters).

[40:48]  ¹⁹ tn The LXX reads “fourteen cubits” (i.e., 7.35 meters). See following note.

[40:48]  ²⁰ tc The translation follows the LXX. The MT reads “the width of the gate was three cubits,” the omission due to haplography.

[40:48]  tn Or “sidewalls.”

[40:48]  ²¹ tn Heb “three cubits” (i.e., 1.575 meters).
