Never Rule the Nations Again – Egypt 2,600 Years Later (Part Two)

Foretold: Ezekiel Chapter 29, the Bible

¹³‘Yet, thus says the Lord God: “At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples among whom they were scattered. ¹⁴I will bring back the captives of Egypt and cause them to return to the land of Pathros, to the land of their origin, and there they shall be a lowly kingdom. ¹⁵It shall be the lowliest of kingdoms; it shall never again exalt itself above the nations, for I will diminish them so that they will not rule over the nations anymore. ¹⁶No longer shall it be the confidence of the house of Israel, but will remind them of their iniquity when they turned to follow them. Then they shall know that I am the Lord God.” ’ ”

Modern: Egyptian since the Pharaohs

In ancient times (1500 – 1200 BC) Egyptian influence spread across Arabia, north along the Mediterranean Sea with power extending to modern Syria.

96% of Egypt today is desert with only 4% usable land. 99% of her present population lives in that 4% stretch along the Nile river.

After millennia of subjugation by foreign powers including the Macedonians, Arabs, Turks, and in modern times the French and British, Egypt regained power and beat back invading forces but the nation has never ruled over the other nations since Ezekiel declared God’s curse 2,500 years ago.
