Commentary on Isaiah 19:17

Theological / Devotional

A terror unto Egypt. Judah was one of the weakest nations in the ancient East, and Egypt one of the strongest. But when the Lord would bring His judgments upon Egypt its self-confidence would be lost. Egypt rejected the counsel of the Lord, but eventually its people would stand in awe and terror before those who honored and served Him. Events would come to such a pass that the wicked would recognize the hand of God stretched out against them for evil.
