Commentary

Commentary on Ezekiel 30:13

Theological / Devotional

Noph. A transliteration of the Heb. Noph, a contraction of the Egyptian Mnnfr, modern Memphis (see on Jer. 2:16).

A prince of the land. Literally, “a prince from the land.” The Heb. ‘od, here translated “no more,” does not necessarily denote unending perpetuity (see on ch. 26:14). The expression could mean either that for a long time there should be no prince from the land of Egypt, or, by understanding the passage relatively, that there should be no more a native prince possessing the power of former kings.
