Ezekiel 28:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 28:21

Son of man, set thy face against Zidon
An ancient city, near to Tyre, and in confederacy with it, greatly given to idolatry and superstition; and may design all the antichristian states in the communion of the church of Rome: and prophesy against it;
the prophet is bid to look towards this place with a stern countenance, as before against Tyre; threatening it with ruin, and prophesying of it, in the following manner.

Ezekiel 28:21 In-Context

19 All who know you among the peoples will be aghast at you. You are an object of terror, and you will cease to exist.'"
20 The word of ADONAI came to me:
21 "Human being, turn your face toward Tzidon, and prophesy against it.
22 Say that Adonai ELOHIM says: 'I am against you, Tzidon; but I will be glorified in you. They will know that I am ADONAI, once I execute judgments in her and show my holiness in her.
23 For I will send plagues into her, and blood will flow in her streets; attacked from all sides by the sword, the wounded will fall within her. Then they will know that I am ADONAI.
