John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Ezekiel 26:13
And I will cause the noise of thy songs to
cease
As this city abounded with riches, so with carnal mirth and
pleasure; it was a "joyous city", ( Isaiah 23:7 ) , the
inhabitants lived merrily and jovially; were much given to music,
which was very diverting and amusing to foreigners that traded
with them; but now it would be all over with them; there would be
no more songs, nor any to sing them: and the sound of thy
harps shall be no more heard;
neither vocal nor instrumental music; and this will be one day
the case of Rome, of which Tyre was a type, ( Revelation
18:22 ) .
