In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me: 'Son of man, set your face toward Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt, dating the oracle against Egypt and shifting focus to Africa's greatest power as the next target of divine judgment. The specification of date emphasizes the divine orchestration of prophecy, while the directive to address Pharaoh directly personalizes the judgment. The inclusion of 'all Egypt' suggests that the nation as a whole bears responsibility for opposing God's purposes.
