Joe: Alright, so, we've got Bible Expert back on the show to talk about Ezekiel 32. What did this chapter say?

Bible Expert: Well Joe, this chapter is a lament for Pharaoh and Egypt, which God views as a great monster in the sea. God is angry with Egypt for their arrogance and pride and so He declares a series of terrible punishments for them.

Joe: Wow, that's intense! What exactly does He do?

Bible Expert: God gathers the nations to witness His judgement, and He declares that He will cover Egypt in darkness and fill their land with the slain. He will bring destruction and desolation upon them and will bring their enemies to feast upon their flesh.

Joe: Ugh, that's gross. What kind of enemies is He talking about?

Bible Expert: He's talking about the birds and wild animals of the land, who will feed upon the corpses of the Egyptians. God says that He will make Egypt a horror and an object of scorn among the nations.

Joe: Wow, that's really harsh. What else does God say?

Bible Expert: He says that He will cover the land of Egypt with darkness, and then He will cause the sword to pass through the land and take the lives of its people. He also declares that He will make the Nile run red with the blood of the slain and will cause the land to be desolate and empty.

Joe: That's really intense. So, what's the takeaway from this chapter?

Bible Expert: The takeaway is that God is a powerful and just God who will punish those who are arrogant and prideful. He is merciful, but He will not tolerate pride and disobedience.
