Ezekiel 17:7-8
v. 7–8: Then another great eagle appears, with large wings and many feathers. The vine turns its roots and branches toward this second eagle, hoping to get water. This second eagle represents Egypt. The vine’s action means that the king of Judah (Zedekiah) looked to Egypt for help instead of trusting Babylon, breaking his oath to Nebuchadnezzar and to God (Ezekiel 17:7–8 a). –
