Footnotes

  1. 56 Heb “vine.”
  2. 57 Sodom … Gomorrah. The term “vine” is a reference to the pagan deities which, the passage says, find their ultimate source in Sodom and Gomorrah, that is, in the soil of perversion exemplified by these places (cf. Gen 18:20; 19:4–28; Isa 1:10; 3:9; Jer 23:14; Lam 4:6; Ezek 16:44–52; Matt 10:15; 11:23–24).
  3. 58 Verses 34–35 appear to be a quotation of the Lord and so the introductory phrase “says the Lord” is supplied in the translation.

And sealed up among my treasures?
