Ezekiel 32 13 Bonus Section
The imagery of a mighty "dragon" (often associated with Leviathan or Rahab in Old Testament theology, symbolic of chaos and hostile powers) falling in Ezekiel is a powerful metaphor. This isn't just a literal kingdom falling, but the shattering of a system that opposed God's divine order and His people. The "great noise" can also be interpreted as the echo of their past boasting and perceived strength now turning into the noise of their defeat, heard and acknowledged by all. Scholars point out that this imagery often has a cosmic dimension, symbolizing the triumph of God's order over forces that seek to disrupt it.
Ezekiel 32 13 Commentary
The verse portrays the complete silencing of Egypt's might and boastfulness. The "great noise" is not of victory or power, but the sound of finality and desolation accompanying divine judgment. God’s action is decisive and pervasive, affecting all "that are against" it. This is a picture of total overthrow. It mirrors other biblical accounts where proud nations or entities are brought to utter ruin, their voices of defiance silenced.
