Ezequiel 26:3 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 26:3

Therefore thus saith the Lord God
Who knew the thoughts of the inhabitants of Tyre, and what joy possessed their hearts, and which their lips expressed; and who informs the prophet of it, though at a great distance, and declares his resentment at it: behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus;
and nothing can be more dreadful and formidable than to have God against a nation, city, or a particular person: Tyre was a type of antichrist, who will express a like joy at the death of the witnesses; thinking that the merchandise of Rome will be increased greatly, and there will be nothing to interrupt it, ( Revelation 11:10 ) , but God will show his displeasure, and bring sudden destruction on it: and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth
his waves to come up;
the Chaldean army, consisting of soldiers of many nations; who for their number, noise, and fury, are compared to the raging waves of the sea. So the Targum,

``I will bring up against thee an army of many people, as the sea ascendeth in the raging of its waves;''

the ten kings shall hate the whore, and destroy her, even those very people she reigns over, compared to many waters, ( Revelation 17:15 Revelation 17:16 ) .

Ezequiel 26:3 In-Context

1 No décimo primeiro ano, no primeiro dia do mês, veio a mim esta palavra do SENHOR:

2 “Filho do homem, visto que Tiro falou de Jerusalém: ‘Ah! Ah! O portal das nações está quebrado, e as suas portas se me abriram; agora que ela jaz em ruínas, eu prosperarei’,

3 por essa razão assim diz o Soberano, o SENHOR: Estou contra você, ó Tiro, e trarei muitas nações contra você; virão como o mar quando eleva as suas ondas.

4 Elas destruirão os muros de Tiro e derrubarão suas torres; eu espalharei o seu entulho e farei dela uma rocha nua.

5 Fora, no mar, ela se tornará um local propício para estender redes de pesca, pois eu falei. Palavra do Soberano, o SENHOR. Ela se tornará despojo para as nações,
