以西结书 27:23-24 CUNPSS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Ezekiel 27:1-25

Here, I. The prophet is ordered to take up a lamentation for Tyrus, Ezek. 27:2. It was yet in the height of its prosperity, and there appeared not the least symptom of its decay; yet the prophet must lament it, because its prosperity is its snare, is the cause of its pride and security, which will make its fall the more grievous. Even those that live at ease are to be lamented if they be not preparing for trouble. He must lament it because its ruin is hastening on apace; it is sure, it is... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 27:23

Haran, and Canneh, and Eden ,.... Haran was a city of Mesopotamia, the same with Haran, where Abraham dwelt awhile, Acts 7:2 , the Charrae of the Parthians, famous for the defeat of Crassus. Canneh is thought to be the same with Calneh, Genesis 10:10 , afterwards called Ctesiphon; and here, by the Targum, Netzibin, a place not far from Tigris; and Eden also was between Tigris and Euphrates. All three places seem to be in Mesopotamia, and not far from each other; the latter is thought by... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Ezekiel 27:24

These were thy merchants in all sorts of things ,.... Either all before mentioned throughout the chapter, or rather those only in the preceding verse; also these were merchants in various things after mentioned, and which were the best and most perfect of the kind, as the word F4 במכללים "rebus perfectissimis", Junius & Tremellius, Polanus, Cocceius, Starckius. used signifies: in blue cloths, and broidered work ; these the Assyrians took of them, a colour in which they much... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 27:23

Haran - In Mesopotamia; well known in Scripture. Canneh - Or Chalane, see Genesis 10:10 . It is supposed to be a cape or port of Arabia Felix, on the Indian Sea. Eden - Equally famous: supposed to have been situated near the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates. Sheba - Different from that in Genesis 10:22 . This was probably near the country of the Edomites. Asshur - Perhaps the Assyrians. Chilmad - Possibly Cholmadora, on the Euphrates. Ptol. lib. v.. cap. 15. For... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Ezekiel 27:24

These were thy merchants in all sorts of things - The above people traded with the Tyrians in a great variety of the most valuable merchandise: blue or purple cloth, boxes of cedar, covered with skins, and bound with silken cords, and sealed with an engraved seal, finely cut, etc. See the Chaldee. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 27:1-25

The beauty, glory, and replenishment of the city of Tyre. This portion of Ezekiel's writings evinces a very remarkable acquaintance with the geography and the economics of the then known world. Perhaps the prophet, living in the heart of a great Oriental monarchy, and in intercourse not only with his countrymen, but with men of various nationalities, may have acquired something more of a cosmopolitan habit of mind than was common among the Jews. Certain it is that the commercial relations... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 27:1-36

Wreck of a stately ship. There is a striking resemblance between a gallant ship and an empire. Many persons and orders are united in a state under one governor or captain. There is a unity amid diversity. A state, like a ship, has interchange of interests with other nations. Upon the skill and prudence of the pilot depends the prosperity of empire or ship. The whole life of Tyre was poured into the channel of commerce. Hence the figure would be readily appreciated. I. THE COMPONENT ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 27:1-36

A celebration of remarkable prosperity. "The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying, Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus," etc. "We have here," says Hengstenberg," the lamentation over the fall of Tyre, announced in the foregoing chapter. First, its present glory is presented at full length to the view ( Ezekiel 27:1-25 ); then its fall, the importance of which can only be understood from the knowledge of its glory. We must profoundly know the gloria mundi if we... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 27:12-25

A picture of extensive commercial relations. "Tarshish was thy merchant by reason of the multitude of all kind of riches," etc. The following topics are suggested for consideration. I. THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE PRODUCTS OF CREATION IN THE VARIOUS COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD . We see from the verses before us that Type drew its supplies from and sent its productions to most or all the places of the then known civilized world. No country can supply its own... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Ezekiel 27:23

Haran and Canaeh , etc. From Arabia we pass to Mesopotamia. Haran ( Genesis 11:31 ) stands for the Carrhae of the Romans, situated at the point where the old military and commercial roads bifurcated Cowards Babylon and the Delta of the Persian Gulf in the one direction, and Canaan in the other. It appears in Genesis 24:10 and Genesis 29:4 as the city of Nahor, in Mesopotamia (Aram-Naharaim, equivalent to "Syria of the two rivers"), or, more definitely, in Parian-Atom, which lies below... read more
