18“ ‘Which of the trees of Eden came anywhere close to you in splendor and size? But you’re slated to be cut down to take your place in the underworld with the trees of Eden, to be a dead log stacked with all the other dead logs, among the other uncircumcised who are dead and buried.

“ ‘This means Pharaoh, the pompous old goat.

“ ‘Decree of God, the Master.’ ”
