New Covenant Relationship with Repentant Israel
2:18“At that time61 I will make a covenant for them with the wild animals,
the birds of the air, and the creatures that crawl on the ground.
I will abolish62 the warrior’s bow and sword
—that is, every weapon of warfare63—from the land,
and I will allow them to live securely.”64
Footnotes
- 61 Heb “And in that day” (so , ).
- 62 Heb “I will break”; “I will destroy”; “I will smash”; “I will remove.”
- 63 Heb “bow and sword and warfare.” The first two terms in the triad וְקֶשֶׁת וְחֶרֶב וּמִלְחָמָה (véqeshet vékherev umilkhamah, literally, “bow and sword and warfare”) are examples of synecdoche of specific (bow and sword) for general (weapons of war, so ). However, they might be examples of metonymy (bow and sword) of association (warfare).
- 64 Heb “and I will cause them to lie down in safety.” The causative nuance (“will make them”) is retained in several English versions (e.g., , , , ).
