Commentaries on Ezekiel 32:24
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 24There is Elam - The Elamites, not far from the Assyrians; others think that Persia is meant. It was invaded by the joint forces of Cyaxares and Nebuchadnezzar.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 24See the marginal referenc. Elam answers to the country known to the Greeks and Romans as Elymais, near Persia and Media. The Elamites were a fierce and warlike people. In the records of Assurbanipal his final triumph over Elam seems to have been one of his proudest boasts.

Assyria had been defeated by the Babylonians and the Medes between 627 and 609 BC. After that time, it was no longer a great world power.Read the comment

Famous for its bowmen (Is 22:6). borne their shame--the just retribution of their lawless pride. Destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar (Jr 49:34-38).Read the comment
