Yehezkiel 41:17

41:17 to the space above the entrance, to the inner room, and on the outside, and on all the walls in the inner room and outside, by measurement. ⁶ 

[3:9]  ¹ tn The Hebrew term translated “diamond” is parallel to “iron” in Jer 17:1. The Hebrew uses two terms which are both translated at times as “flint,” but here one is clearly harder than the other. The translation “diamond” attempts to reflect this distinction in English.

[3:9]  ² tn Heb “of their faces.”

[10:11]  ³ sn That is, the cherubim.

[10:11]  ⁴ tn Many interpreters assume that the human face of each cherub was the one that looked forward.

[14:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “proverbs.”

[41:17]  ⁶ tc The LXX does not have the word “by measurements.” The word may be a technical term referring to carpentry technique, the exact meaning of which is unclear.
