에스겔 30:6-9 KRV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 30:1-19

The prophecy of the destruction of Egypt is here very full and particular, as well as, in the general, very frightful. What can protect a provoking people when the righteous God comes forth to contend with them? I. It shall be a very lamentable destruction, and such as shall occasion great sorrow (Ezek. 30:2, 3): ?Howl you; you may justly shriek now that it is coming, for you will be made to shriek and make hideous outcries when it comes. Cry out, Woe worth the day! or, Ah the day! alas... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 30:6

Thus saith the Lord, they also that uphold Egypt shall fall ,.... That is, by the sword; either their allies and auxiliaries without, that supported the Egyptians with men and money; or their principal people within, their nobles that supported their state with their estates, their counsellors with their wisdom, their soldiers with their valour and courage: and the pride of her power shall come down ; or the power they were proud of, the dominion and grandeur they boasted of; the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 30:7

And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate ,.... Or among them, shall be ranked with them, and be as desolate as they are; as Judea and other countries, ravaged by the same enemy: and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted ; undergo the same fate as they have done, as Jerusalem and others. The cities of Egypt were very numerous; Diodorus Siculus F14 Bibl. l. 1. p. 19. says, that in ancient times Egypt had cities and villages... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 30:8

And they shall know that I am the Lord ,.... The Egyptians shall know the Lord to be the true God, and acknowledge him to be omniscient and omnipotent, that should so exactly foretell their destruction, and accomplish it: when I have set a fire in Egypt : a war there; the heat of battle, very devouring and consuming, as well as very grievous and terrible, as fire is. The Targum is, "when I shall give (or set) people that are strong as fire against Egypt;' the army of the Chaldeans: ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 30:9

In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships ,.... Either by the river Nile, or by the Red sea, to Arabia Felix, which some think is meant by Ethiopia. Cush or Ethiopia was encompassed about with water, so that there was no coming to it but by ships; see Genesis 2:13 , compare with this Isaiah 18:1 , the messengers here were either such who under a divine impulse, or however by the providence of God, were directed to go to Ethiopia, and tell them the news of the destruction of... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 30:9

Messengers go forth from me in ships - Ships can ascend the Nile up to Syene or Essuan, by the cataracts; and when Nebuchadnezzar's vessels went up, they struck terror into the Ethiopians. They are represented here as the "messengers of God." read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 30:1-7

The day of desolation. To what extent we are to take the prophet's description of the "woe" that was to overtake Egypt in a strictly external sense must (as said before on Ezekiel 29:16 ) depend on our principle of biblical interpretation, together with our reading of ancient history. For the purpose of religious edification it is enough that we accept these words as a picture of the desolation to which a course of guilt, whether national or individual, may be expected to lead. I. ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 30:1-19

The Lord's day in Egypt. The Lord's day is the day in which God comes nearest to men and manifests himself. Whether he will come as our Friend or as our Foe depends on our state of mind towards him. He has not abandoned the race of men. They are on trial, undergoing discipline. Now and again he comes near, either in his radiant robes of grace or in solemn aspect as an impartial Judge. Even when he approaches nations in the latter character, he gives premonitions of his coming, and this is... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 30:4-6

Associated calamities. I. TROUBLE SPREADS . 1. In the individual . The first mischief in Egypt comes from the sword of the invader; but this is quickly followed by other ills. After Nebuchadnezzar's invasion the "abundance" is taken away, and the "foundations" are broken down. 2. Among communities of men . Cush follows the fate of Egypt, and other nations also fall under the wide sweep of judgment. We are members one of another, and when one member suffers all the... read more
