I am using the daily Bible reading schedule from “The Bible.net” for my daily Bible reading.

In the year 2000, on the 23rd day of this month, my wife married me.  So I am going to wish her Happy Anniversary here for 20 days to celebrate 20 years of marriage.  Happy Anniversary Darling!

Today, I am reading and commenting on Ezekiel 29-31.

As I said yesterday, I never really know what to think about Ezekiel’s prophecies against Judah’s neighbors.  Today’s passage covers Egypt.  Today’s passage tells us that Egypt came to believe that its geography was its own great accomplishment.  The rulers of Egypt became arrogant and made promises which they could not fulfill.  They became convinced that their own skills had provided them with the advantages which came from being located along the Nile and that they could use those advantages elsewhere.  Their arrogance led to their downfall.
