Contextual Overview

20 It happened in the eleventh year, in the first [month], in the seventh [day] of the month, that the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Par`oh king of Mitzrayim; and, behold, it has not been bound up, to apply [healing] medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it be strong to hold the sword. 22 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against Par`oh king of Mitzrayim, and will break his arms, the strong [arm], and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand. 23 I will scatter the Mitzrim among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries. 24 I will strengthen the arms of the king of Bavel, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break the arms of Par`oh, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man. 25 I will hold up the arms of the king of Bavel; and the arms of Par`oh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Bavel, and he shall stretch it out on the land of Mitzrayim. 26 I will scatter the Mitzrim among the nations, and disperse them through the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

and will disperse them through the countries: the same thing repeated in different words for the confirmation of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Fourth prophecy against Egypt spoken three months before the capture of Jerusalem Ezekiel 26:1, and three months after the prophecy of Ezekiel 29:1. Meantime, Pharaoh-Hophra’s attempt on Jerusalem had been foiled, and the Egyptians driven back into their own country (Jeremiah 37:5 note).

Ezekiel 30:21

I have broken - Especially by the defeat at Carchemish.

A roller - Or, a bandage.

Ezekiel 30:22

The strong - Such power as Egypt yet retained at home and abroad.

That which was broken - The power which Egypt aimed at ineffectually, the conquest of Palestine and Syria.
