Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Ezekiel 26:1-21

Ezekiel 26:1-21 . A lengthy prophecy concerning Tyrus is found in this and in the chapters which follow. These great predictions have found a startling fulfilment. History confirms all that Ezekiel spoke should come to pass. In Ezekiel 26:1-14 we have the overthrow of the powerful city predicted. The city of Tyrus (which means rock) was partly built upon an island off the mainland in the Mediterranean Sea. It was an ancient Phoenician city and is mentioned in Scripture for the first time in... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 26:1-21

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 26:1-21

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

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Ezekiel 26:1-6

That the Prophecy of Ezekiel hath a reference to events greater than the deliverance of Israel from Babylon is granted by almost all writers, both Jews and Gentiles, And hence, various have been the attempts of men to unfold and explain this scripture. Tyre particularly hath been considered, as spiritually referring to the latter ages of the Church; and while the Prophet, in the first and literal sense, had his eye on the events of the Babylonish captivity, somewhat of an higher nature is... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 26:5

Sea. St. Jerome explains this of New Tyre; Marsham of the Old. To reconcile the different texts, we only need to suppose that both cities were connected by a road thrown up in the sea by Hiram, and repaired by Nabuchodonosor with great labour, (chap. xxix. 18.) after it had been destroyed by the inhabitants of New Tyre, when they saw the old city on the continent fall a prey. (St. Jerome) (Calmet) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 26:1-14

1-14 To be secretly pleased with the death or decay of others, when we are likely to get by it; or with their fall, when we may thrive upon it, is a sin that easily besets us, yet is not thought so bad as really it is. But it comes from a selfish, covetous principle, and from that love of the world as our happiness, which the love of God expressly forbids. He often blasts the projects of those who would raise themselves on the ruin of others. The maxims most current in the trading world, are... read more

A General Outline of the Judgment v. 1. And it came to pass in the eleventh year, namely, after the deportation of Jehoiachin, in the first day of the month, the month of the year not being mentioned, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, v. 2. Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, in the same malicious joy which had been found in the Ammonites, 25:3, Aha! she is broken that was the gates of the people, Jerusalem being the chief commercial rival of Tyrus,... read more

HOMILETICAL HINTSOn Ch.26Ezekiel 26:1-6. Tyre, the home of the first learned jurist, Ulpian, is the burial-place of the gifted theologian Origen; and the ruins of its once gorgeous cathedral cover the bones of the Emperor Frederick Barbarossa.—“Selfishness is a very great sin, especially when one seeks to become rich through other people’s hurt” (Cr.).—Tyre against Jerusalem: a study for the times.—“The prophet would check the despondency which a sight of the world shining in its glory can so... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Ezekiel 26:1-21

The doom of the two dealt with Tyre and Sidon, but principally with Tyre. Concerning her, the prophet first made a general statement describing her sin, and the judgment determined against her, declaring that the purpose was that she also would know Jehovah. The sin of Tyre had finally expressed itself in her rejoicing over the downfall of Jerusalem, and her expectation of enrichment therefrom. On account of this the prophet declared that Jehovah was against Tyre, and that He would so utterly... read more
