Commentary on Ezekiel 29:10

Theological / Devotional

Tower. Heb. Migdol, here a proper name and the phrase should read, “from Migdol to Syene.” Several sites on the eastern Delta seem to have borne this name. If the Migdol here is the one mentioned by Jeremiah it is probably the modern Tell el-Heir south of Pelusium (see Jer. 44:1 ; 46:14).

Syene. A town on the extreme southern border of Egypt, represented by the modern Aswan (sometimes spelled Assuan), which is situated near its mines. The two towns, Migdol and Syene, represent the northern and southern extremities of the land.
