Contextual Overview

¹ The Word of the Lord came to me saying, ² "Son of man, speak in My name and say, ‘This is what the Lord God says: "Cry in a loud voice, ‘It is bad for that day!' ³ For the day is near. The day of the Lord is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of trouble for the nations. ⁴ A sword will come against Egypt, and Ethiopia will be very troubled. When the people are killed in Egypt, her riches will be taken away, and her country destroyed. ⁵ Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all of Arabia, Libya, and the people of Israel living there, all who have an agreement with Egypt will be killed by the sword."'" ⁶ ‘The Lord says, "Those who help Egypt will be killed in battle. The pride of her power will come down. From Migdol to Syene they will be killed by the sword," says the Lord God. ⁷ "They will be a waste among the lands that are laid waste. And her cities will be among the destroyed cities. ⁸ Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I start a fire in Egypt and all those who help her are destroyed. ⁹ On that day I will send men in ships to bring fear to Ethiopians who think they are safe. They will be troubled and afraid as when Egypt is destroyed, for their day is coming!" ¹⁰ The Lord God says, "I will put an end to Egypt's riches by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word of the Lord came again unto me,.... Whether this prophecy was delivered about the time of that in the former part of the preceding chapter, namely, in the tenth year, tenth month, and twelfth day of it; or whether about the time that was which is recorded in the latter part of the chapter, in the seven and twentieth year of Jehoiachin's captivity, is not easy to say; I am inclined to think it was about the time of the latter, since the time of the fulfilment of it is said to be near, Ezekiel 30:3:

saying: as follows:

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Third prophecy Ezekiel 30:1-19 against Egypt, probably to be connected with the previous verses (compare Ezekiel 30:10 with the Ezekiel 29:17-21 note). Some consider it to belong to the earlier part of Ezekiel 29:0 (compare Ezekiel 29:10, Ezekiel 29:12 with Ezekiel 30:5-6).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXX

This chapter describes, with great force and elegance, the ruin

of Egypt and all her allies by the Chaldeans under

Nebuchadnezzar, 1-11;

with an amplification of the distress of the principal cities

of Egypt on that occasion, 12-19.

The remaining verses are a short prophecy relating to the same

event, and therefore annexed to the longer one preceding,

although this was predicted sooner, 20-26.
