[12:6] 2 tn Or “land” (ASV, NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV).
[12:6] 3 sn See also Ezek 12:11, 24:24, 27.
[18:2] 4 tn This word only occurs here and in the parallel passage in Jer 31:29-30 in the Qal stem and in Eccl 10:10 in the Piel stem. In the latter passage it refers to the bluntness of an ax that has not been sharpened. Here the idea is of the “bluntness” of the teeth, not from having ground them down due to the bitter taste of sour grapes but to the fact that they have lost their “edge,” “bite,” or “sharpness” because they are numb from the sour taste. For this meaning for the word, see W. L. Holladay, Jeremiah (Hermeneia), 2:197.
[23:32] 5 sn The image of a deep and wide cup suggests the degree of punishment; it will be extensive and leave the victim helpless.
