Places in this verse
Egypt
Today: Egypt (Nile Valley)
A country in northeast Africa along the Nile River, southwest of Israel.
Joseph was sold into it, and his family went down to live there (Gen 37:28; 46:6). God brought Israel out of it with a mighty hand (Exod 12:41). The child Jesus fled there with his parents (Matt 2:14).
The context
18And if the family of Egypt does not go up and does not come, there will be no rain on them; there will be the plague with which YHWH will strike the nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Booths.
