Reciprocal: Genesis 41:1 - the river Exodus 7:17 - thou shalt Jeremiah 9:23 - neither Jeremiah 50:31 - I am Ezekiel 29:16 - but Ezekiel 29:21 - they shall know Ezekiel 30:8 - shall know

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste,.... Men few or none being left in it, to till it, nor cattle found upon it:

and they shall know that I am the Lord; by these judgments executed upon them, now foretold; and which when come to pass, they will be obliged to acknowledge the omniscience and omnipotence of Jehovah:

because thou hast said, the river is mine, and I have made it;

:-; this insolent expression was highly resented by the Lord, as appears by the repetition of it. The Targum is here, as before,

"the kingdom is mine, and I have subdued it;''

but, notwithstanding this vaunt, he could not keep it.
