Footnotes

1. Isaiah 25:1 sn The prophet speaks here as one who has observed the coming judgment of the proud.
2. Isaiah 25:1 tn Heb “name.” See the note at 24:15.
3. Isaiah 25:1 tn Heb “plans from long ago [in] faithfulness, trustworthiness.” The feminine noun אֱמוּנָה (ʾemunah, “faithfulness”) and masculine noun אֹמֶן (ʾomen, “trustworthiness”), both of which are derived from the root אָמַן (ʾaman), are juxtaposed to emphasize the basic idea conveyed by the synonyms. Here they describe the absolute reliability of the divine plans.
