Footnotes
- 10 Heb “her sons.” English versions have long translated this as “children,” however; cf. , , , , , , . The word order is rhetorical: the accusative וְאֶת־בָּנֶיהָ (vé’et-baneha, “her sons”) is moved forward for emphasis.
- 11 Heb “sons of adulteries”; “children of whoredoms.” The word order is rhetorical: the construct clause בְנֵי זְנוּנִים (véne zénunim, “sons of adulteries”), which functions as the predicate nominative, is moved forward, before the independent personal pronoun הֵמָּה (hemma, “they”) which functions as the subject, to focus on the immoral character of her children.
