Ezekiel30:15

15 And I will pour my fury upon Sin , the strength of Egypt, and I will cut off the multitude of No ,

See chap. 21. ver. 31. let. d.

Either Sain, or more likely Pelusium, which was a Frontier, and secured the entrance of Egypt fromward the Desert of Sin, was the key of Egypt, and therefore alwaies well fortified, and strongly garrisoned, it was called Damiata.

One of the principal munitions of Egypt; for 'twas a good, and large Haven, and was strengthned with all needful Fortifications.

Or the Riches, and Tumultuous noise, which the multitudes thereof made.

If we read, as the Margin, 'tis plain, God does threaten Pel[illegible: 1 letter]sium after No is cut off; if we retain our own Translation, we must think of another City of that name, which God threatens with Sin: Now this may be Thebae Egyptiacae, or this City may be Hamon No called Diospolis, the City of Iupiter, possibly it may be the same mentioned already, and the threat repeated to confirm it.

Marginal references: Or, Pelusium.; [illegible: 1 word] when I have [illegible: 1 word] off.
