Isaias

Hebrew Bible

Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

24 And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick; the people that dwelleth therein is forgiven (its) iniquity.

[*](16. ‘high place’: or, ‘refuge,’ ‘stronghold.’)[*](17 ﬁn. Many comm. transl. ‘a far-stretching land’: but in Isai. xxxix. 3 Jer. viii. 19, a ‘land of distance,’ sing. almost certainly means ‘a distant land.’ Cf. xlvi. 11)[*](20. Or, ‘[estal,’ ‘solemn assembly,’ ‘be removed’: or, ‘wander.’)[*](21. ‘canals,’ lit. Niles, Nile-arms, as in ch. xix. ‘gallant’: or, ‘majestic’: same epithet as ‘in majesty’ preceding.)[*](22. ‘lawgiver,’ lit. inscriber: ‘governors,’ Judg. v. 9.)[*](23. Usually taken not of a tent. as ver. 20: so however Kay, W. E. Barnes: but of a ship, in which case ’pole’=‘mast,’ and ‘banner’ (but doubtfully) stands for ‘sail.’ ‘firmly,’ or, ‘upright’: many take it as noun =the socket of the pole.)[*](24. i.e. ‘no inhabitant shall say,’ &c.)
