Ezekiel 29:18-21
The first year of Nbuwkadre'tsar is Yirmeyahu 25:1
Jeremiah 25:1
1. The word that came to Yirmeyahu concerning all the people of Yhudah in the fourth year of Yehoiakim the son of Yosiah king of Yhudah, that was the first year of Nbuwkadre'tsar king of Babylon:
Ezekiel concerning Tyre-Tyrus, (Tsowr), and Nbuwkadre'tsar:
Ezekiel 26:7
7. For thus says Adonay YHWH; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus, Nbuwkadre'tsar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.
Ezekiel 29:18-21
18. Son of man, Nbuwkadre'tsar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:
19. Therefore thus says Adonay YHWH; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nbuwkadre'tsar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
20. I have given him the land of Egypt for his labor wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for Me, says Adonay YHWH.
21. In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Yisrael to bud forth, and I will give you [HaNavi Yhezkel] the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am YHWH.
So when Egypt falls, (O Egypt, great of flesh!), the words of Ezekiel will begin to be understood by the one whose carcass is given to the fowls of the heavens and the beasts of the field, (an idiom of course). Historicism is fallacy: when did Nebuchadnezzar ever conquer Egypt and fulfill the things prophesied in
Ezekiel 29:18-21 quoted above? They were never fulfilled because clearly from a purely historical standpoint Nebuchadnezzar never conquered Egypt. Nbuwkadre'tsar is "the terrible of the heathen", and master of those bitter and hasty Chaldeans, (
Habakkuk 1:6), who come to possess dwellings not their own; and the eighth is of the seven, the head-sum of the gold, so that the words of Elohim should be fulfilled, (
Revelation 17:17), and haNavi Yirmeyahu implies that in the afterglow of the aftermath days one will consider it perfectly. Yea, the fall of Nebuchadnezzar VIII will be fuel for the fire like the great fattened calf, Gog, (all of them fatlings of Bashan).
