Commentary on Ezekiel 29:5
Egypt would be left desolate, cast into the wilderness like a dead crocodile, unburied and exposed to scavengers. Denial of proper burial represented the ultimate indignity in ancient Near Eastern culture. This judgment reveals that pride brings humiliation—those who exalt themselves will be abased (Luke 14:11). God's judgments fit the crime symbolically.
