30:6-7 This taunt was against those who were busy trying to please the Egyptians in order to get Egypt’s military support. 30:6 Caravans moved from Judah through the Negev and the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt to avoid the main coast road that was under Assyrian control. It was a dangerous region, filled with lions and poisonous snakes. People would risk their lives to make a worthless alliance. • Being weighed down with riches might refer to money being sent to Egypt to buy that nation’s help.
