Fourth prophecy against Egypt spoken three months before the capture of Jerusalem Ezekiel 26:1, and three months after the prophecy of Ezekiel 29:1. Meantime, Pharaoh-Hophra’s attempt on Jerusalem had been foiled, and the Egyptians driven back into their own country (Jeremiah 37:5 note). Ezekiel 30:21 I have broken - Especially by the defeat at Carchemish. A roller - Or, a bandage. Ezekiel 30:22 The strong - Such power as Egypt yet retained at home and abroad. That which was broken - The power which Egypt aimed at ineffectually, the conquest of Palestine and Syria. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
