Ezequiel 32:27-32

27 Y no yacerán con los fuertes que cayeron de los incircuncisos, los cuales descendieron al infierno con sus armas de guerra, y pusieron sus espadas debajo de sus cabezas; mas sus pecados estarán sobre sus huesos, porque fueron terror de fuertes en la tierra de los vivientes.

28 Tú, pues, serás quebrantado entre los incircuncisos, y yacerás con los muertos a cuchillo.

29 Allí Idumea, sus reyes y todos sus príncipes, los cuales con su fortaleza fueron puestos con los muertos a cuchillo; ellos yacerán con los incircuncisos, y con los que descienden al sepulcro.

30 Allí los reyes del aquilón, todos ellos, y todos los de Sidón, que con su terror descendieron con los muertos, avergonzados de su fortaleza, yacen también incircuncisos con los muertos a cuchillo, y llevaron su confusión con los que descienden al sepulcro.

31 A éstos verá Faraón, y se consolará sobre toda su multitud; Faraón muerto a cuchillo, y todo su ejército, dijo el Señor DIOS.

32 Porque yo puse mi terror en la tierra de los vivientes, también yacerá entre los incircuncisos con los muertos a cuchillo, Faraón y toda su multitud, dijo el Señor DIOS.

Ezequiel 32:27-32 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL 32

This chapter contains two more prophecies concerning the destruction of Egypt. The date of the first is given, Eze 22:1, in which the king of Egypt is compared to a large fish taken in a net, and brought to land, and left on it, to be the prey of the fowls of the air and beasts of the field, Eze 32:2-4, and the ruin of that kingdom is further amplified by the casting of it on the mountains and valleys; by the land flowing with its blood; by the darkness of the heavens; by the vexation in the hearts of many people; and by the amazement of kings and nations, Eze 32:5-10, the means and instruments of all which will be the king of Babylon and his army, Eze 32:11,12, the devastation made by him, which would be such as would cause lamentation in other nations, is described, Eze 32:13-16, then follows the other prophecy, whose date is given, Eze 32:17, the prophet is bid to lament the fall of Egypt, which is represented under the funeral of a corpse, Eze 32:18-20, saluted by those gone down to the grave before, or were become desolate; which are mentioned, to assure Egypt of its destruction, Eze 32:21 as the Assyrian empire, and all its provinces, Eze 32:22,23, the Persians and Medes, with all their dominions, Eze 32:24,25, the posterity of Meshech and Tubal, or the Scythians, those warlike people, Eze 32:26-28, the Edomites, the princes of the north, and all the Zidonians, Eze 32:29,30 which would be a comfort, though a poor one to the king of Egypt and his subjects, to have such company with them, Eze 32:31,32.
