Eventual Decline of the Surrounding Egyptian Environment
(Isa 19:5-8) The waters will fail from the sea, And the river will be wasted and dried up. {6} The rivers will turn foul; The brooks of defense will be emptied and dried up; The reeds and rushes will wither. {7} The papyrus reeds by the River, by the mouth of the River, And everything sown by the River, Will wither, be driven away, and be no more. {8} The fishermen also will mourn; All those will lament who cast hooks into the River, And they will languish who spread nets on the waters.
(Isa 11:15) The LORD will utterly destroy the tongue of the Sea of Egypt; With His mighty wind He will shake His fist over the River, And strike it in the seven streams, And make men cross over dry-shod.
These dams have created significant ecological problems for the Egyptians and will continue to grow in severity.
