Ezekiel Chapter 26
Overview
Eze 26:1, Tyrus, for insulting against Jerusalem, is threatened with destruction; Eze 26:7, The power of Nebuchadnezzar against her; Eze 26:15, The mourning and astonishment of the sea at her fall.

Behold: Eze 26:3-6 contain a summary prediction of what befell both the continental and insular Tyre, during a long succession of ages. The former was totally destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, after a siege of thirteen years, bc 573; and the latter, which arose out of its ruins, after seventy years recovered its ancient wealth and splendour, as foretold by Isaiah (Isa 23:15-17). After it was taken and burnt by Alexander, bc 332, it speedily recovered its strength and dignity, and nineteen years afterwards withstood both the fleets and armies of Antigonus. Agreeably to the prophetic declarations (Psa 45:12; Psa 72:10. Isa 23:18. Zac 9:1-7), it was early converted to Christianity; and after being successively taken by the Saracens, Christians, Mamalukes, and Turks, in whose hands it still remains, it became "a place for the spreading of nets."

they shall lay: The ruins of old Tyre contributed much to the taking of the new city; for with the stones, timber, and rubbish, Alexander built a bank, or causeway, from the continent to the island, thereby literally fulfilling the words of the prophet.
Eze 28:13; Isa 14:11, Isa 22:2, Isa 23:7, Isa 23:16, Isa 24:8, Isa 24:9; Jer 7:34, Jer 16:9, Jer 25:10; Hos 2:11; Amo 6:4-7; Jam 5:1-5; Rev 18:22, Rev 18:23
I will: Old Tyre was never rebuilt after its destruction by Nebuchadnezzar; and there are now no traces left to mark its site. The new city, when visited by Maundrell, Bruce, and other travellers, was literally "a place for fishers to dry their nets on."
