Ezekiel 29:15 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 29:15

And it shall be the basest of the kingdoms
That belonged to the Persian monarchy, or to the Macedonian empire, being more kept under than the rest, lest it should regain its former strength and glory; though it became more famous in the times of some of the Ptolemies, yet never recovered its former greatness; and is now exceeding base indeed, as appears from the preceding note: neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations;
so as to conquer them, and make them tributary to it, as it had done: for I will demolish them, that they shall no more rule over the
nations;
for though they made war upon other nations in the time of the Lagidae, yet they did not subdue them, and annex them to their kingdom, being much weakened both as to men and money.

Ezekiel 29:15 In-Context

13 The Sovereign Lord says, "After forty years I will bring the Egyptians back from the nations where I have scattered them,

14 and I will let them live in southern Egypt, their original home. There they will be a weak kingdom,

15 the weakest kingdom of all, and they will never again rule other nations. I will make them so unimportant that they will not be able to bend any other nation to their will.

16 Israel will never again depend on them for help. Egypt's fate will remind Israel how wrong it was to rely on them. Then Israel will know that I am the Sovereign Lord."

17 On the first day of the first month of the twenty-seventh year of our exile, the Lord spoke to me.
