27:17Do not listen to them. Be subject to the king of Babylon. Then you46 will continue to live. Why should this city be made a pile of rubble?’ ”47
Footnotes
- 46 The imperative with vav (ו) here and in v. 12 after another imperative are a good example of the use of the imperative to introduce a consequence. (See §110.f and see Gen 42:18. This is a common verb in this idiom.)
- 47 According to E. W. Bullinger (Figures of Speech, ) both this question and the one in v. 13 are examples of rhetorical questions of prohibition / “don’t let this city be made a pile of rubble.”
