This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.

29

Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:

30

And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;

31

And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.

Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Destruction / Perishing Language

The verse describes a natural disaster (famine) consuming the land, not the perishing or destruction of wicked people as a consequence of their actions. The "consumption" is of the land's plenty, not the people themselves for their wickedness.

Time-Bound Fulfillment

While the verse mentions a specific duration for the famine ("seven years"), it does not explicitly state that this duration is part of a prophecy that is *expected to be recognized when fulfilled*, only that the famine will occur.
