Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 32:32

Ezekiel 32:32. For I have caused my terror— For I will cast my terror upon the land of the living, that he may lie down in the midst, &c. Houbigant. REFLECTIONS.—1st, Though Egypt was an idolatrous nation, and Pharaoh a wicked prince, the prophet must take up a lamentation over them. For the ministers of God, when they can do no more, must weep over those who, hardened in sin, refuse to shed a tear for themselves. 1. The king of Egypt is compared to a lion, fierce, devouring, ravenous; to a... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 32:32

32. my terror—the Margin or Keri. The Hebrew text or Chetib is "his terror," which gives good sense (Ezekiel 32:25; Ezekiel 32:30). "My terror" implies that God puts His terror on Pharaoh's multitude, as they put "their terror" on others, for example, under Pharaoh-necho on Judea. As "the land of the living" was the scene of "their terror," so it shall be God's; especially in Judea, He will display His glory to the terror of Israel's foes (Ezekiel 32:30- :). In Israel's case the judgment is... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 32:17-32

7. A summary lament over Egypt 32:17-32The last of the seven oracles against Egypt fittingly pictures the nation in its final resting place, the grave or Sheol, surrounded by other dead nations that had preceded it in judgment."The language is highly poetical and the details must not be taken too literally. This is not the chapter to turn to if one wishes to understand the Bible’s teaching about the after-life. It does, however, illustrate something of the concept of death which was common to... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 32:31-32

When Pharaoh died, he would see that his was not the only nation to suffer the fate that the Lord announced, and this would be of some comfort to him. Even though the Lord terrified him with the Babylonians while he was alive, he and his people would find some rest in death because they would lie with other peoples who had experienced a similar end.The Egyptians took pride in their preparations for death and their burial customs thinking that these assured them safe passage to the nether world... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 32:1-32

Two Lamentations for Pharaoh and EgyptThis chapter consists of two prophecies, both dated more than a year and a half after the capture of Jerusalem, and separated from each other by a fortnight. In the first Pharaoh is likened, no longer to a young lion, but to a foul river monster, which will be caught, cast on the mountains, and devoured by birds and beasts of prey. At the monster’s end the lights of heaven will be darkened, and the nations will be dismayed (Ezekiel 32:1-10). The allegory is... read more

Ezekiel 32:1 ; Ezekiel 32:17 Calling to mind my ordination this day eleven years ago, I spent some hours in the afternoon in the wood, reviewing the past, confessing sin, seeking mercy through the blood of the Lamb, who has a fold of righteousness to spread over a minister's sins. Some brokenness of heart and some power to cry for future blessing. I see Ezekiel got some of his messages in his twelfth year! May the Lord God of Ezekiel remember me! Dr. A. A. Bonar's Diary, p. 143. References.... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 32:1-32

EGYPTEzekiel 29:1-21; Ezekiel 30:1-26; Ezekiel 31:1-18; Ezekiel 32:1-32EGYPT figures in the prophecies of Ezekiel as a great world-power cherishing projects of universal dominion. Once more, as in the age of Isaiah, the ruling factor in Asiatic politics was the duel for the mastery of the world between the rival empires of the Nile and the Euphrates. The influence of Egypt was perhaps even greater in the beginning of the sixth century than it had been in the end of the eighth, although in the... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 32:1-32

JUDGMENTS ON GENTILE NATIONS The prophet’s “dumbness” enjoined in the last chapter, was only towards his own people, and the interval was employed in messages touching the Gentiles. These nations might have many charges laid against them, but that which concerned a prophet of Israel chiefly was their treatment of that nation see this borne out by the text. Their ruin was to be utter in the end, while that of Israel was but temporary (Jeremiah 46:28 ). Seven nations are denounced, “the... read more
