“And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.”
And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians; and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom—the judgment consisting of internal civil war and social collapse, with Egyptians fighting each other. The escalation from individual to city to kingdom level suggests comprehensive disintegration. This verse describes internal conflict as the instrument of judgment.
