Ezekiel 32:12 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

By the swords of the mighty; the soldiers of Nebuchadnezzar, helped also by Amasis, and the rebellious Egyptians that joined with Amasis and Nebuchadnezzar against their own king. The multitude; the people of the land, which were numerous before they were wasted by these wars. The terrible of the nations: see Ezekiel 31:12. Spoil the pomp; break her strength, rob her treasures, sack her cities, captivate her people, and make the kingdom tributary, and so stain all her glory. All the multitude thereof, from high to low, the great and the mean promiscuously, shall perish.

Ezekiel 32:12

12 By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the terrible of the nations, all of them: and they shall spoil the pomp of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.
