Ezekiel 30:15

“And I will pour out my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt, &c.] Either the city Sais, as the Septuagint and Arabic versions; or rather Pelusium, as the Vulgate Latin version, so called from “pelos” which signifies “clay” in the Greek language; and the same “Sin” signifies in the Chaldee, (<191843>Psalm 18:43), and as now called Tineh, from ˆyj, “clay”: it had a very fine haven, and may be called the strength of Egypt, it lying at the entrance of it; and having a strong fortified tower, it was difficult to enter into it; but could not stand before the wrath and fury of the Lord of hosts, when he sent the Chaldeans to it. It is thought by some to be the same with Pithom, built by the first…”

“Sin--that is, Pelusium, the frontier fortress on the northeast, therefore called "the strength (that is, the key) of Egypt." It stands in antithesis to No or Thebes at the opposite end of Egypt; that is, I will afflict Egypt from one end to the other.”

“Sin - Pelusium, which was the key of Egypt, and therefore always well fortified, and strongly garrisoned. Ezekiel 30:16”

“30:15 Pelusium was a fortress town on the northeastern frontier of Egypt.”

“I will pour: Psa 11:6; Nah 1:6; Rev 16:1 Sin: or, Pelusium, Now Tineh, a town of Egypt, situated at the eastern extremity of the Delta, twenty stadia from the Mediterranean, near the lake of Menzaleh, and upon a branch of the Nile, to which it gave name. It was the key of Egypt on the side of Judea and Syria, and was therefore strongly fortified and garrisoned; but it is now quite in ruins. Ezekiel 30:16”
