To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

So who do you think you are among all the trees in Eden? You think you're the most glorious and greatest of them all? Well, you're going down with the rest of them, straight to the depths of the earth. You'll be lying there with everyone else who was killed in battle, with people who never knew God. This is what's coming for Pharaoh and his entire army, says the Lord God.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Even the mightiest rulers who think they're untouchable will eventually fall just like everyone else.
