Ezequiel 27:30 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 27:30

And shall cause their voice to be heard against thee
The rulers and governors of the city, for having taken a false step in provoking the enemy, and then holding out the siege no longer, as it was thought they might and would: or rather "over thee", or, "for thee" {h}; mourning over the city, and lamenting its sad case; see ( Revelation 18:9 Revelation 18:11 ) : and shall cry bitterly;
with great weeping, howling, and shrieking: and they shall cast dust upon their heads;
a custom used in the eastern countries, in time of mourning and sorrow; see ( Revelation 18:19 ) : and they shall wallow themselves in ashes:
or roll themselves in them, another custom used in mourning; see ( Jeremiah 6:26 ) ( Micah 1:10 ) .

Ezequiel 27:30 In-Context

28 Al grito de tus timonelestemblarán las costas.

29 Todos los remeros abandonarán las naves;marineros y timoneles bajarán a tierra.

30 Por ti levantarán la vozy llorarán con amargura;se echarán ceniza sobre la cabeza,y se revolcarán en ella.

31 Por tu culpa se raparán la cabeza,y se vestirán de luto.Llorarán por ti con gran amargura,y con angustiosos gemidos.

32 Entonarán sentidos lamentos,y en tono de amarga queja dirán:‘¿Quién en medio de los marespodía compararse a Tiro?’
