  1. Jeremiah 46:25

    The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I am about to punish Amon god of Thebes, along with Pharaoh, Egypt with her gods and kings, and those who trust in Pharaoh.

    Commentary on Jeremiah 46:252 voices
    The Egyptians call Zeus Ammon. For this reason it is also called the Ammonian land. They have furnished the largest sacred precinct for this deity. He calls Ammon "Egypt's son" on the grounds that Ammon was a god created by it, since a statue is …

    Theodoret of Cyrus· ON JEREMIAH 9:46Patristic

    The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saith,.... These titles are often given to the Lord, and set before prophecies that come from him; and, according to Kimchi, the reason why he is here spoken of as the God of Israel was, because the vengeance threatened to the Egyptians should come upon them, as a punishment for using Israel ill; as Shishak king of Egypt, and Pharaohnecho, who slew Josiah: behold, I will punish the multitude of No; the inhabitants of it, which were many, called "populous No", Nah 3:8; a famous city in Egypt.

  2. Ezekiel 30:14–16

    I will lay waste Pathros, set fire to Zoan, and execute judgment on Thebes.

    Commentary on Ezekiel 30:14–162 voices
    And I will make Pathros desolate,.... A country in Egypt; See Gill on Eze 29:14, perhaps it was the first place that Nebuchadnezzar entered, and so went from place to place in the order hereafter mentioned: and I will set fire in Zoan; or Tunis, a famous city in Egypt in the times of Moses, Num 13:22. The Targum and Septuagint version call it Tanis here; and from hence a nome in Egypt was called the Tanitic nome.

    John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed

    I will make Pathros desolate - See Eze 29:14. Zoan - Tanis, the ancient capital of Egypt. No - Diospolis, or Thebes, the city of Jupiter.

  3. Nahum 3:8

    Are you better than Thebes, stationed by the Nile with water around her, whose rampart was the sea, whose wall was the water?

    Commentary on Nahum 3:82 voices
    No - It is supposed this was what we now called Alexandria. Art thou greater, stronger, and wiser? Yet all her power was broken, her riches spoiled, and her glory buried in ruins.

    John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical

    Art thou better than populous No,.... Or No Amon, a city in Egypt so called, not because the kings of Egypt were nursed and brought up there, as Jarchi and Abarbinel; see Pro 8:30 but from Ham the son of Noah, whose land Egypt was; or from Jupiter Ammon, worshipped there. No Amon signifies the mansion or palace of Ham, or Hamon; the Egyptians, as Herodotus says (h), call Jupiter by the name of Ammon.
