Footnotes

  1. 46 The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here is אֲדֹנָי (’adonai).
  2. 47 Heb “and the Master will give to you bread—distress, and water—oppression.”
  3. 48 Heb “but your teachers will no longer be hidden, your eyes will be seeing your teachers.” The translation assumes that the form מוֹרֶיךָ (morekha) is a plural participle, referring to spiritual leaders such as prophets and priests. Another possibility is that the form is actually singular (see §93.ss) or a plural of respect, referring to God as the master teacher. See III מוֹרֶה. For discussion of the views, see J. N. Oswalt, Isaiah (), 1:.
