The Egyptians had come from Memphis and Tahpanhes and destroyed Israel's Glory and Power. This was a painful and shameful situation for God's People. It was not just a 'fact' that 'just happened'! It happened because of a reason, and the reason was that God's People forsook Him. The same will surely happen today when God's People forsake Him. This is one of the reasons why we are exhorted to closely follow the Lord.
