Ezekiel 17:10

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

Yea, behold, [being] planted,.... Supposing it ever so well planted, as first by Nebuchadnezzar; and still put into a better condition by the assistance of the king of Egypt, as was imagined:shall it prosper?

it shall not; their own strength, with the help of the king of Egypt, will not be able to protect them from the rage of the king of Babylon:shall it not utterly wither, when the east wind toucheth it?
