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 'Therefore thus says the Lord God: "Because you have set your heart as the heart of a god,

7 Behold, therefore, I will bring strangers against you, The most terrible of the nations; And they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom, And defile your splendor.

8 They shall throw you down into the Pit, And you shall die the death of the slain In the midst of the seas.

9 "Will you still say before him who slays you, 'I am a god'? But you shall be a man, and not a god, In the hand of him who slays you.

10 You shall die the death of the uncircumcised By the hand of aliens; For I have spoken," says the Lord God.' "
