Contradiction with Isaiah 19:24
Isaiah 19:24 states that Egypt will become a blessing in the midst of the land, contrary to Ezekiel 29:15 which says it will be the basest of kingdoms and not exalted.
Isaiah 19:24: In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, [even] a blessing in the midst of the land:
Contradiction with Ezekiel 31:2-3
This passage compares Egypt to a towering cedar, which contrasts with Ezekiel 29:15 where Egypt is described as a lowly kingdom.
Ezekiel 31:2-3: Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?
Contradiction with Jeremiah 46:27
God tells Jacob to not fear because He will save them from afar, implying Egypt (their oppressor) would be powerless, contradicting the notion of Egypt being significant or lowly in the way it is described in Ezekiel 29:15.
Jeremiah 46:27: But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make [him] afraid.
Contradiction with Isaiah 11:15
This verse speaks of the Lord destroying Egypt’s power by drying the sea, contradicting the idea in Ezekiel 29:15 that Egypt will be a lowly kingdom since it suggests a stronger judgment.
Isaiah 11:15: And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make [men] go over dryshod. [dryshod: Heb. in shoes]
Contradiction with Daniel 11:42-43
These verses depict Egypt as a powerful kingdom whose wealth will be plundered, contrasting with the description of Egypt as a base and insignificant kingdom in Ezekiel 29:15.
Daniel 11:42-43: He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. [stretch...: Heb. send forth]
Paradox #1
This verse could be seen as conflicting with earlier promises or descriptions of Egypt's greatness in other parts of the Bible. It may seem inconsistent with how Egypt is portrayed as a powerful nation elsewhere in the scriptures.
Paradox #2
Ezekiel 29:15 includes a prophecy about Egypt never being a significant power again. Historically, Egypt has maintained varying degrees of influence throughout different periods, which some see as inconsistent with the verse's implications about its future status.
Paradox #3
Ezekiel 29:15 predicts a certain status for Egypt, suggesting it would become the "lowliest of kingdoms" and never again rule over nations. Historically, Egypt has experienced periods of significant power and influence, including being a major regional power during various periods long after the time of Ezekiel. This presents an inconsistency with the prediction.
