📚 About this Book
✦ Chapter Overview

In this chapter God instructs Ezekiel to record the story of Tyre, a proud city that has defied Him and is about to be destroyed. The passage describes Tyre's sin, the divine judgment that will bring ruin, and the image of a ship that will be cast into the sea as a symbol of its fall. The chapter emphasizes God's rightful authority over all nations and the consequences of prideful rebellion.

(2) Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;
(3) And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.
