What Does Ezekiel 30:15 Mean?
'Pour my fury' expresses divine wrath as an overwhelming force. Sin (also called Pelusium) was a key fortress city, described as 'the strength of Egypt'—a place of military and strategic importance. If its strength is broken, Egypt has no defense.
'Cut off the multitude' again stresses loss of population through slaughter. No (Thebes), Egypt's ancient religious capital, will be emptied of inhabitants. The targeting of major cities emphasizes comprehensive coverage of the judgment.
