Albert Barnes Commentary Ezekiel 32:17

"It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, that the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying," — Ezekiel 32:17 (ASV)

The seventh prophecy against Egypt (Ezekiel 32:17–32). A funeral dirge founded on (Ezekiel 31:18). The figure is the same as in (Isaiah 14:0), where the notes on that passage can be found. In this dirge Pharaoh is especially addressed. The other nations are represented by their kings, the nations’ overthrow being depicted by the king’s body laid low in the grave.

The month—that is, the twelfth .
