Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Ezekiel 27:22-24

Traders from Sheba and Raamah, other areas of Arabia, paid for their wares with spices, precious gems, and gold. Haran (in Aramea), Canneh (or Calneh, in Mesopotamia), Eden (south of Haran), Sheba (in eastern Arabia), Asshur (Assyria), and Chilmad (probably in Mesopotamia or Arabia) exchanged garments, carpets, and finely crafted clothing materials. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 27:1-36

The Wreck of the gallant ShipUnder the figure of a ship, splendidly equipped, fully manned, and richly laden, but steered into stormy waters and wrecked, Ezekiel describes the fall of Tyre. In Ezekiel 27:10-20 the figure is partly dropped.3. People] RV ’peoples’; and so everywhere. 5. Senir] Mt. Hermon (Deuteronomy 3:9). 6.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Ezekiel 27:21

(21) Arabia . . . Kedar.—Arabia is never used in the Old Testament for the whole of the country now called by that name, but only for the desert part of it occupied by nomadic tribes. Kedar is the name of a nomadic pastoral race descended from Ishmael (Genesis 25:13; comp. Isaiah 60:7). read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Ezekiel 27:22

(22) Sheba and Raamah were both Hamites, descended from Cush (Genesis 10:7). They occupied that part of Arabia in the south-east which lies on the Bay of Oman, in the Persian Gulf, and were famous in antiquity for the products mentioned in the text, and which, with the exception of gold, are still found there. read more

Ezekiel 27:17 'That is a remarkable verse, which I once met on a remarkable occasion, that I would also refer you to Ezekiel 27:17 . Tyrus may buy Judah's finest wheat; yea, her balm, and oil, and honey. What is the meaning of this? You would know what part of the parcel properly belonged to yourself.' So Erskine of Linlathen once wrote to Lady Elgin, cautioning her against hastily crediting supernatural visions and voices which appeared to possess Divine authority and insight, on the ground... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 27:1-36

TYRE (CONTINUED): SIDONEzekiel 27:1-36; Ezekiel 28:1-26THE remaining oracles on Tyre (chapters 27, Ezekiel 28:1-19) are somewhat different both in subject and mode of treatment from the chapter we have just finished. Chapter 26 is in the main a direct announcement of the fall of Tyre, delivered in the oratorical style which is the usual vehicle of prophetic address. She is regarded as a state occupying a definite place among the other states of the world, and sharing the fate of other peoples... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Ezekiel 27:1-36

Ezekiel 27:1-36 . Ezekiel 27:1-25 give an interesting description of the world-wide commerce and glory of this proud world city. “Sic transit gloria mundi,” thus passeth the glory of the world! Of the proud and wicked mistress of the sea nothing but ruins remain and her very site is no longer known. What her past glory was is made known by the prophet, yet Ezekiel never had been to that city, nor did he have any knowledge of her grandeur, her great wealth and far reaching commerce. God revealed... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 27:1-36

JUDGMENTS ON GENTILE NATIONS The prophet’s “dumbness” enjoined in the last chapter, was only towards his own people, and the interval was employed in messages touching the Gentiles. These nations might have many charges laid against them, but that which concerned a prophet of Israel chiefly was their treatment of that nation see this borne out by the text. Their ruin was to be utter in the end, while that of Israel was but temporary (Jeremiah 46:28 ). Seven nations are denounced, “the... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Ezekiel 27:1-36

The Fate of Tyre Ezekiel 26-28 These chapters are superb reading. There is nothing to equal them out of Isaiah and the Apocalypse. Read them verse by verse privately; they grow as they are read. Was ever such a picture of a city drawn as is here drawn of the now all-but-forgotten Tyre and the adjacent city, Phoenician Sidon? How could Sidon escape when the great wind of God fell upon Tyre? It is dangerous to live near some cities, some people, some institutions. The twenty-seventh chapter... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 27:4-36

I have not interrupted the reading of the whole Chapter, for from the beginning to the close of the Chapter, it is but one and the same subject. The riches, trade, and commerce of Tyrus, fills the whole of the verses. The Reader will find cause on the perusal to lament, as the Prophet was commanded to do, that a place abounding with so many blessings, should have abounded also with so much sin . But alas! what is human nature universally considered in the present fallen state! read more
