Ezekiel 29:10

"The land of Egypt will be a desolation and a waste. Then they will know that I am the LORD. “‘“Because he has said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it,’"

Key Reflection

In Ezekiel 29:10, the land of Egypt faces divine judgment, becoming a desolate and uninhabitable wasteland, signifying that only the Lord has ultimate sovereignty over water resources. For the original audience, this would have been a stark reminder that even the Nile, a symbol of Egyptian might and life-giving power, was subject to God’s control, underscoring His authority and challenging their belief in Egypt's independence and divinity.
