Gaebelein's Annotated Bible The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them. CHAPTER 23The Burden of Tyre 1. Tyre’s great disaster (Isaiah 23:1-5) 2. The complete overthrow (Isaiah 23:6-14) 3. Tyre’s future restoration and degradation (Isaiah 23:15-18)Tyre typifies the commercial expansion and glory of the world. Behind this commercial glory stands Satan, the god of this age. Read Ezekiel 28:11-19. Nebuchadnezzar carried out judgment upon Tyre Ezekiel 29:17-21. A revival of Tyre is also predicted. We call attention to a statement in the beautiful Forty-fifth Psalm, a millennial Psalm. When the King appears, surrounded by His own, “The daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift” Psalm 45:12. It is what is indicated in Isaiah’s vision, “And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the Lord.”
