TSNTyndale Study Notes:

46:2-12 Jeremiah used the results of a battle known to Jehoiakim to warn him and the people of Jerusalem that Egypt could not protect them from Babylon. Pharaoh Neco had thought that the time was ripe to become the dominant power in the ancient Near East, so he moved north in 609 BC. After Neco spent several years trying to help fragments of the Assyrian army stop the westward movements of the Babylonian army, he was soundly defeated at Carchemish on the Euphrates River in 605 BC. Soon after that, the Babylonian army surrounded Jerusalem and forced Jehoiakim to become a vassal of Babylon.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) Egypt rises like the Nile

(Some words not found in UHB: Miʦrayim/(Egypt) like_the,Nile it_ascended and,like_the,rivers surge waters and=he/it_said rise cover earth/land destroy (a)_city and,inhabitants in/on/at/with,their )

The Nile river floods its banks once a year, covering the surrounding area with water. Yahweh compares the kingdom of Egypt to the Nile because the Egyptian people think they are mighty enough to destroy cities in all the lands.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) Egypt rises … Egypt says … I will

(Some words not found in UHB: Miʦrayim/(Egypt) like_the,Nile it_ascended and,like_the,rivers surge waters and=he/it_said rise cover earth/land destroy (a)_city and,inhabitants in/on/at/with,their )

Here “Egypt” represents all the people of Egypt. Alternate translation: “The Egyptians rise … The Egyptians say … We will”
