Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Ezekiel 29:16

_ _ Egypt, when restored, shall be so circumscribed in power that it shall be no longer an object of confidence to Israel, as formerly; for example, as when, relying on it, Israel broke faith with Nebuchadnezzar (Ezekiel 17:13, Ezekiel 17:15, Ezekiel 17:16).

_ _ which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them — rather, “while they (the Israelites) look to (or, turn after) them” [Henderson]. Israel’s looking to Egypt, rather than to God, causes their iniquity (unfaithfulness to the covenant) to be remembered by God.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Ezekiel 29:8-16.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Ezekiel 29:16

Which — Which sinful reliance on the arm of flesh provoked God to call to mind their other iniquities. When — When they forgot God, and respected Egypt. They — The house of Israel.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes
