TSNTyndale Study Notes:

3:4-7 Ezekiel was sent to God’s people, the people of Israel, whom one would expect to be eager to listen to the Lord. However, it would have been easier for the prophet if he had been sent to people with strange and difficult speech who could not understand him. This hard-hearted community refused to obey the Lord.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

(Occurrence 0) of strange speech or a difficult language

(Some words not found in UHB: not to/towards peoples many obscure language and,difficult language which/who not understand words,them if not to,them sent,you they(emph) they_will_understand to,you )

Alternate translation: “who speak a strange or difficult language”

(Occurrence 0) not to many peoples of strange speech

(Some words not found in UHB: not to/towards peoples many obscure language and,difficult language which/who not understand words,them if not to,them sent,you they(emph) they_will_understand to,you )

Alternate translation: “I am not sending you to a mighty nation whose people speak a strange language”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / hypo

(Occurrence 0) if I sent you to them, they would have listened to you

(Some words not found in UHB: not to/towards peoples many obscure language and,difficult language which/who not understand words,them if not to,them sent,you they(emph) they_will_understand to,you )

This is a hypothetical situation that could have happened but did not. Yahweh did not send Ezekiel to people who did not understand his language.

(Occurrence 0) if I sent you to them

(Some words not found in UHB: not to/towards peoples many obscure language and,difficult language which/who not understand words,them if not to,them sent,you they(emph) they_will_understand to,you )

The word “them” refers to a mighty nation other than Israel.
