Ezekiel 32:18 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Wail — Prepare the funeral ceremonies at the burial of Egypt. The daughters — And celebrate the funerals of other cities and kingdoms that lie buried in their own ruins. The nether parts of the earth — A well known description of the state of the dead. The pit — The Egyptians affected to be buried in the Pyramids, and their kings, and great ones, would be laid by themselves; but Ezekiel provides them their grave among common people, being buried just where they fall.

Ezekiel 32:18

18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, even her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
