There then follows three chapters detailing various aspects of Egypt’s demise. The destruction would be devastating and would encompass the surrounding nations as well. Egypt would be left bereft of leaders. Even the parts of Egypt that had the longest and most glorious of histories would be destroyed.
Pharaoh himself would be left utterly helpless, unable to do anything.
Egypt is reminded of what happened to Assyria. Assyria once rose tall and powerful, but she was brought low. So it would be with Egypt.
Egypt claimed to be great, thinking that she was powerful, but in reality she just muddied the waters. Godless men do nothing to enhance the world.
