Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Ezekiel 28:16-17

Ezekiel 28:16-17. By the multitude of thy merchandise, &c. The riches which thy great trade has produced have but increased thy love of gain more and more, and induced thee to commit acts of violence, fraud, and extortion, to make further additions to thy power and riches; therefore I will cast thee out of the mountain of God I will cast thee down to contempt from that super-eminent degree of power and glory to which I had raised thee, and from the exalted station of governing others,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 28:1-19

Judgment on the king of Tyre (28:1-19)The king of Tyre, as representative of the whole nation, is now condemned on account of the pride for which Tyre was famous. Because of the wealth and strength that the country gained through clever trading, Tyre saw itself as all-powerful, answerable to no one. It considered itself to be a god among the nations of the commercial world (28:1-5).Yahweh, the only true God, will tolerate Tyre’s arrogance no longer. The day of Tyre’s judgment has come (6-7).... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Ezekiel 28:14-16

Ezekiel 28:14-16. Thou art the anointed cherub, &c.— Peters observes upon these verses, that the king of this proud city, who it seems affected divine honours, is compared to an anointed cherub, or one of the chiefs and rulers of the angelical host, thus remarkably described, as one that was perfect in his ways from the day that he was created, till iniquity was found in him. Eze 28:15 one who had his place of residence upon the holy mountain of God, and walked up and down in the midst of... read more

16. filled the midst of thee—that is, they have filled the midst of the city; he as the head of the state being involved in the guilt of the state, which he did not check, but fostered. cast thee as profane—no longer treated as sacred, but driven out of the place of sanctity (see Ezekiel 28:14) which thou hast occupied (compare Psalms 89:39). read more

B. Judgment on Tyre 26:1-28:19"When Jerusalem finally fell in 586, the only states that were still resisting the Babylonians were Egypt and Tyre. It is not coincidental, therefore, that of the foreign nations addressed by Ezekiel, these two are singled out for the brunt of his oracular volleys." [Note: Block, The Book . . . 48, p. 32.] The length of this oracle reflects the great significance of Tyre at this time in Israel’s history. Tyre (lit. "rock") was the principle city of Phoenicia and... read more

4. A funeral dirge for the king of Tyre 28:11-19"This is one of the more difficult passages in the Book of Ezekiel-if not in the whole Bible! The reason for the difficulty lies mainly in the lack of sufficient data to reach precise conclusions. There are many terms and phrases that are only used in these verses in the OT. . . ."Ancient mythology should be kept in mind, for it shows the Phoenicians’ religious thinking and provides cultural aid in interpreting the passage. However, to interpret... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 28:16

Abundant trade had made this king increasingly violent to the point that he sinned against God. The reference to trade supports the view that the earthly king is in view.Because of this sin, the Lord had cast the king from His mountain as profane or common. The king could no longer rule under God’s permissive authority. The Lord had destroyed His servant in that He had removed him from his privileged place of service and allowed his enemies to defeat him. read more
