What does Jeremiah 25:22 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Jeremiah 25:22
And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of
Zidon
Two very ancient cities in Phoenicia, frequently mentioned
together in Scripture, being near each other. Their ruin is
foretold in ( Jeremiah
47:4 ) ; and the kings of the isles which [are] beyond
the sea;
which some understand of Greece and Italy; others of Rhodes,
Cyprus, and Crete, and other islands in the Mediterranean sea;
the Cyclades, as Jerom: but the words may be rendered, "and the
kings of the country by the seaside"; and may design those that
dwell upon the coast of the Mediterranean sea.
