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 Everyone among the peoples who knows you will be appalled because of you. You will become a terror. From that time on, you will be nothing.
20 The LORD's word came to me:
21 Human one, face Sidon, prophesy against it,
22 and say, The LORD God proclaims: I'm against you, Sidon, and I will manifest my glory in you. When I've executed judgment against it and through it have manifested my holiness, they will know that I am the LORD.
23 I will hurl plague against it, and blood will run in its streets. When the sword comes against it from all sides, the slain will fall within it. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
