Contextual Overview

1 And it happened in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first of the month, the Word of Jehovah was to me, saying, 2 Son of man, lift up a lament over Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and say to him, You were like a young lion of the nations, and you were like the monster in the seas. And you burst forth in your rivers and stirred up the waters with your feet andfouled their rivers. 3 So says the Lord Jehovah: And I will spread out My net over you with an assembly of many peoples, and they will make you go up in My net. 4 Then I will leave you on the land; I will hurl you on the face of the field and will make all the birds of the heavens to dwell on you, And I will fill the beasts of all the earth from you. 5 And I will put your flesh on the mountains and fill the valleys with your heap. 6 And I will water the the land with the discharge of your blood, to the mountains, and the ravines shall be full of you. 7 And I will cover the heavens when I quench you, and I will darken their stars. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give its light. 8 I will darken all the luminaries of light in the heavens over you and will give darkness on your land, declares the Lord Jehovah. 9 I will also vex the heart of many peoples when I bring your breaking among the nations, to the lands which you have not known. 10 And I will make many people appalled at you, and their kings will be horribly afraid at you, when I make My sword fly before their faces. And they shall quake at every moment, each man for his own life, in the day of your fall.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then will I leave thee upon the land,.... Like a fish that is drawn out of the waters with a net or hook, and laid on dry land, and left gasping and expiring, where it cannot long live:

I will cast thee forth on the open field; the same in different words, signifying that his army should fall in battle by the sword of the Cyreneans, or Chaldeans, or both, and be left on the surface of the earth unburied:

and will cause all the fowls of the heavens to remain upon thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee; which may be understood either literally of the fowls of the air, that should light upon the slain carcasses, and rest on them till they had satisfied themselves with their flesh; and of the beasts of the field that should gather about them from all parts, and fill themselves with them; see

Revelation 19:17 or figuratively of the soldiers of the enemy's army, that should plunder them, and enrich themselves with the spoil.
