Ezequiel 32:21

21 En medio del abismo, los guerreros más fuertes y valientes hablarán de Egipto y de sus aliados. Y dirán: “¡Ya han descendido a la fosa! ¡Yacen tendidos entre los paganos que murieron a filo de espada!”

Ezequiel 32:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 32:21

The strong among the mighty shall speak to him
The strongest of them, such who have excelled others in strength and courage, famous for military exploits, who have been generals of armies, great warriors, and conquerors; and yet with all their might and strength could not withstand death, but were subdued by it, and brought down to the grave; these are, by a poetical figure, represented as meeting Pharaoh king of Egypt, when he came to his grave, saluting and welcoming him to the state of the dead in which they were; taking a sort of comfort in it, and insulting him as being as weak as they; see ( Isaiah 14:9 Isaiah 14:10 Isaiah 14:16 ) , which they should do out of the midst of hell,
or the grave, "Hades", the state of the dead: with them that help him;
the associates, allies, and friends of Pharaoh, his auxiliaries that fell with him, and were brought to the grave at the same time with him; these should be greeted, saluted, and welcomed in like manner: they are gone down;
to the grave; those mighty ones that are represented as speaking, and the Egyptians and their helpers who are spoken to: they lie uncircumcised;
among them that are so, ( Ezekiel 32:19 ) : slain by the sword;
of their enemies, who got the victory over them.

Ezequiel 32:21 In-Context

19 Pregúntales: “¿Se creen acaso más privilegiados que otros? ¡Pues bajen y tiéndanse entre los paganos!”

20 Y caerán entre los que murieron a filo de espada. Ya tienen la espada en la mano: ¡que se arrastre a Egipto y a sus multitudes!

21 En medio del abismo, los guerreros más fuertes y valientes hablarán de Egipto y de sus aliados. Y dirán: “¡Ya han descendido a la fosa! ¡Yacen tendidos entre los paganos que murieron a filo de espada!”

22 »Allí está Asiria, con toda su multitud en torno a su sepulcro. Todos ellos murieron a filo de espada.

23 Todos los que sembraban el terror en la tierra de los vivientes yacen muertos, víctimas de la espada. Ahora están sepultados en lo más profundo de la fosa, ¡tendidos alrededor de su tumba!
