Isaiah 30:2-4

2-4. That walk to go down into Egypt “Going in the descent of Egypt,” by their ambassadors. Trusting in the shadow of Egypt in her protection rather than in the protection of Jehovah is most disgraceful. Their trust in Pharaoh’s protection shall, however, prove to be to them a shame, a confusion. The folly has already gone so far that ambassadors are already at Zoan, (the present Tsan,) the royal seat in lower northeastern Egypt, and at Hanes, (a name perhaps contracted from Tahpanhes, so Grotius thinks,) another royal seat in middle Egypt, to both of which it may be assumed applications were made.
