TSNTyndale Study Notes:

12:2 intoxicating drink (literally bowl of reeling or cup of staggering): The cup of alcoholic drink is a metaphor for God’s judgment (Isa 51:17; Jer 25:15; Hab 2:16; Matt 26:39, 42; Rev 14:10; 16:1). Jerusalem would be instrumental in God’s judgment on the nearby nations.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) I am about to make Jerusalem into a cup … to stagger about

(Some words not found in UHB: see/lo/see! I make DOM Yerushalayim cup reeling to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples surrounding and=also on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Yehuda will_belong in/on/at/with,siege on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Yərūshālayim/(Jerusalem) )

Yahweh using Jerusalem to punish the surrounding peoples is spoken of as if Yahweh would make Jerusalem a cup full of an alcoholic drink that will cause the surrounding peoples to get drunk and stagger. Alternate translation: “Soon it will be like I make Jerusalem into a cup … to stagger about”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) into a cup

(Some words not found in UHB: see/lo/see! I make DOM Yerushalayim cup reeling to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples surrounding and=also on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Yehuda will_belong in/on/at/with,siege on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Yərūshālayim/(Jerusalem) )

Here “cup” represents the cup and the contents within the cup. Alternate translation: “into a cup full of wine” or “into a cup full of an alcoholic drink”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

(Occurrence 0) surrounding her

(Some words not found in UHB: see/lo/see! I make DOM Yerushalayim cup reeling to/from=all/each/any/every the,peoples surrounding and=also on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Yehuda will_belong in/on/at/with,siege on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Yərūshālayim/(Jerusalem) )

Here “her” refers to the city of Jerusalem. It was common in Hebrew to speak of a city or country as if it were a woman.
