Ezekiel 32:1-16

The Sixth Oracle. A Lament Over Pharaoh and Egypt (Ezekiel 32:1-16 ).

The date of the oracle is March 585 BC. It follows the destruction of Jerusalem. The versions vary, seeking to alter the date to before that in Ezekiel 33:21 (probably to maintain a smooth chronology). But there is no valid reason to do so.
