Ezekiel 28:8 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 28:8

They shall bring thee down to the pit
Or, "to corruption" {k}; to the grave, the pit of corruption and destruction; so antichrist shall go into perdition, into the bottomless pit from whence he came, ( Revelation 17:8 ) : and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of
the seas;
that die in a sea fight, whose carcasses are thrown overboard, and devoured by fishes.

Ezekiel 28:8 In-Context

6 So now the LORD God proclaims: Because you claim to have the mind of a god,

7 I'll bring foreigners, the most ruthless nations, against you. They will let loose their swords against your fine wisdom, and they will degrade your splendor.

8 They will hurl you to destruction, and you will die, murdered, on the high seas.

9 When you face your murderers, will you still say, "I'm God"? In your killers' hands, you are mortal, not divine.

10 You will die as the uncircumcised do, at the hands of foreigners. I have spoken. This is what the LORD God has said.
