I will make Pathros desolate That is, Thebais; and will set fire in Zoan Or, Tanis, one of the ancient cities in Egypt, and the metropolis of the kingdom in Moses's time: see Psalms 78:12; Psalms 78:43. I will execute judgments in No Called the multitude of No, or Hamon-no, in the next verse, and probably the same with the city Thebes, famous for its hundred gates: see the note on Jeremiah 46:25. I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt It is generally agreed that Sin is the same with Pelusium, one of the seven mouths of the Nile, which was commonly called the key of Egypt, as Suidas observes, and therefore was strongly fortified, that no enemy might gain admittance.
