God's judgment upon the prince of Tyrus for his sacrilegious pride11. A lamentation of his great glory corrupted by Sidon 20. The judgment of Zion 24. The restoration of Israel By the multitude of your iniquities This phrase highlights the extensive and repeated nature of the sins committed. The Hebrew word for "iniquities" is "עֲוֹנוֹת" (avonot), which implies a deep moral corruption and a turning away from God's laws. Historically, this reflects the persistent rebellion against God seen in the actions of the king of Tyre, who is the subject of this prophecy. The multitude suggests not just a single act but a lifestyle of sin, emphasizing the gravity and accumulation of offenses that lead to divine judgment. by the unrighteousness of your trade you have profaned your sanctuaries So I made a fire come out from within you it consumed you and I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you By the iniquity of thy traffick.--Here, as so often in other cases, the sin is represented as consisting in the abuse of the very blessings which God had given, and this sin as leading directly to its own punishment. No fact is more striking in history, whether of Israel or of the heathen, than that the gifts of God, which should have been to their blessing and His glory, are perverted by the sinfulness of man: first to their own guilt, and then, in consequence, to their ruin. Ezekiel 28:20-26 constitute another distinct prophecy, of which Ezekiel 28:20-24 are occupied with the denunciation of judgment upon Zidon, and Ezekiel 28:25-26 with promises to Israel. There are several obvious reasons, besides that of making up the number of the nations to seven, why at least a word of prophecy should have been directed especially against Zidon, notwithstanding her forming a part of Ph?nicia and contributing to the mariners of Tyre (Ezekiel 27:8). In the first place, Zidon (situated about twenty-five miles north of Tyre) was the more ancient city from which Tyre had sprung, and always maintained her independence. Hence she might seem not to be exposed to the judgment of God upon Tyre, unless especially mentioned. Then also Zidon (rather than Tyre) had been peculiarly the source of corrupting idolatrous influences upon Israel. This had begun as early as the times of the Judges (Judges 10:6); it had been continued and increased in the days of Solomon (1Kings 11:33); it reached its consummation under the reign of Ahab, who married Jezebel, the daughter of the king of Zidon and high priest of Baal (1Kings 16:31), and who set up the worship of Baal as the state religion of Israel. That this influence was still powerful in Judah also in the days of Ezekiel is plain from the reference to the Thammuz worship in Ezekiel 8:14. . . .
