  I have read the chapter 19 of Isaiah, which scholars of high criticism believe to be authentic, of Isaiah himself. In this chapter there are more than one prophecy for Egypt. My question is, how many of them you found fullfilled and unfulfilled?.... for instance, I have read that some people affirm that verse 16 has already been fulfilled because Israel is currently militarily much greater than Egypt. Ok, but there are other prophecies that I found incredible. ...well, I invite you to read the chapter 19 here :

  ALL OF THEM.

  Between 1919 and 1946. How do we know? The Witchtower says so, and we can trust them, because Jehoobie and his side kick Jesus trust them.

  How do we know? Because the prophecies were fulfilled between 1919 and 1946!

  Rinse and repeat.

  I would like to read how the apologists explain the following prophecy of that chapter:

  21 So the Lord will make himself known to the Egyptians, and in that day they will acknowledge the Lord . They will worship with sacrifices and grain offerings; they will make vows to the Lord and keep them. 22 The Lord will strike Egypt with a plague; he will strike them and heal them. They will turn to the Lord , and he will respond to their pleas and heal them.

  23 In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together. 24 In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing [ b ] on the earth. 25 The Lord Almighty will bless them, saying, ‘Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance.’

  When did Egypt turn to Yahweh?,....when were Assyria, Egypt and Israel united in worshipping Yahweh?

  Prophecies are not causation. There can be no fulfilled prophecy unless it is a weird accident. One would think the WT would give up after its track record.
