"7 months." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-numbers]])

The word "house" is a metonym for the family that lives in the house, in this case the Israelites, the descendants of Jacob over many years. See how you translated this in [Ezekiel 3:1](../03/01.md).

"the Israelites" or "the Israelite people group". See Ezekiel 3:1.
