Ezekiel 32:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 32:13

I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the
great waters
Which used to graze beside the river Nile, and the canal, of it, in the plains and meadows, valley, and hills, which these ran by; meaning both horses, which Egypt abounded with, and would be good booty for the Chaldeans, and oxen and sheep, which they would kill for present use, or drive away for future service: neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs of
beasts trouble them;
there should so few remain of men and beasts, that the waters of the rivers would not be disturbed, either by men passing over them, and doing any business upon them, or by beasts drinking at them.
