Reading for April 15th

Read Ezekiel 30.20-26 The fourth oracle concerning Pharaoh.
In the eleventh year ... the first month ... the seventh day: April 29, 587 BCE.
The broken arm of Pharaoh refers to Nebuchadnezzar's defeat of  Hophra,
who attempted to relieve Jerusalem in 588 BCE (Jer 37.5).
The prophet anticipates an even more devastating defeat of Egypt.
