Ezekiel 32:23

Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.

Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit. Sepulchres in the east were caves hollowed out of the rock, and the bodies were laid in niches formed at the sides. Maurer needlessly departs from the ordinary meaning, and translates, 'extremities' (cf. ; ).

All of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living - all they who, alive, were a terror to others, are now, in the nether world, themselves a terrible object to behold.
