In the context of <a href="/ezekiel/32.htm">Ezekiel 32</a>, God is pronouncing judgment on Pharaoh and Egypt. The imagery of blood drenching the land signifies a complete and overwhelming defeat. Blood in the Bible often symbolizes life (<a href="/leviticus/17-11.htm">Leviticus 17:11</a>), and its spilling represents death and judgment. This prophecy against Egypt reflects the historical context of Egypt's decline as a dominant power, which was fulfilled as they faced invasions and internal strife. The imagery also echoes the plagues of Egypt in Exodus, where the Nile turned to blood, symbolizing divine judgment.<p><b>all the way to the mountains</b><br>The mention of mountains indicates the extent of the devastation. Mountains in biblical literature often symbolize stability and permanence, yet here they are reached by the flow of blood, suggesting that the judgment is so severe it affects even the most stable and enduring parts of the land. This could also imply that the consequences of Egypt's downfall would be far-reaching, affecting neighboring regions and peoples. The mountains may also symbolize the high places of pagan worship, which were often sites of idolatry and false security.<p><b>the ravines will be filled</b><br>Ravines, being low-lying areas, would naturally collect the flow of blood, emphasizing the completeness of the destruction. This imagery suggests that no part of the land will be untouched by the judgment. In a broader biblical context, ravines can symbolize places of desolation and abandonment (<a href="/isaiah/41-18.htm">Isaiah 41:18</a>). The filling of ravines with blood underscores the totality of God's judgment against sin and rebellion. This can be seen as a type of the final judgment, where all will be held accountable before God. The imagery also foreshadows the ultimate victory of Christ, who, through His sacrifice, conquers sin and death, bringing both judgment and redemption.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/e/ezekiel.htm">Ezekiel</a></b><br>A prophet of God who ministered to the Israelites during their Babylonian exile.
