Burden of Egypt

What does it mean to smite Egypt and then heal her in the same context? Could this relate to the death as well as the simultaneous redemption of the Church?

JUDGMENT ON EGYPT: DEATH OF THE CHURCH?

Is 19:1 The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.

Isa 2:18 And the idols he shall utterly abolish.

Ex 3:20 And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go.

REDEMPTION OF EGYPT: SALVATION OF THE BODY?

Is 19:23 In that day shall there be a highWAY out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.

Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the WAY, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

SUMMARY CONCLUSION

The burden of Egypt spoken of in Isaiah 19 appears to be looking at God’s judgment coming on the Church in tribulation. The elect (wheat) were a part of Egypt where they were made to serve. However at the revelation of Christ, God redeemed Egypt in bringing back their captivity. At the same time, God’s wrath continues on that part of Egypt that is NOT redeemed (death of the church).
