Ezequiel 27:33 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 27:33

When thy wares went forth out of the seas
When they were took out of ships, which came to Tyre from all parts, and were landed on the shore, and put up in warehouses, and exposed in markets and The Targum is,

``when thy merchandise went out from among the nations;''

being brought from all parts thither: thou filledst many people;
by selling them in their markets commodities they wanted, for which they came from all quarters; and by sending them to others in ships, where they knew they stood in need of them, and would fetch them a good price; and they had enough to answer the demands of all, and to supply them to the full: thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy
riches and pithy merchandise;
by taking off the goods of their subjects, whereby they were able the better to pay their taxes, and support them in their grandeur and dignity; as well as by furnishing them gold and silver, and precious stones, which they gave for the produce of their country; or by the toll and custom of the goods imported or exported.

Ezequiel 27:33 In-Context

31 e se farão calvos por tua causa, e se cingirão de sacos, e chorarão sobre ti com amargura de alma, com amarga lamentação.

32 No seu pranto farão uma lamentação sobre ti, na qual dirão: Quem foi como Tiro, como a que está reduzida ao silêncio no meio do mar?

33 Quando as tuas mercadorias eram exportadas pelos mares, fartaste a muitos povos; com a multidão das tuas riquezas e das tuas mercadorias, enriqueceste os reis da terra.

34 No tempo em que foste quebrantada pelos mares, nas profundezas das águas, caíram no meio de ti todas as tuas mercadorias e toda a tua companhia.

35 Todos os moradores das ilhas estão a teu respeito cheios de espanto; e os seus reis temem em grande maneira, e estão de semblante perturbado.
