  • Summary

  • In Chapter 26, Ezekiel’s Oracles Against the Nations moves onto the city of Tyre, and the prophet stays fixated on Tyre for three chapters. It is surprising that Ezekiel only glances at the Ammonites, Moabites, Edomites, and Philistines while he gives Tyre a jaundiced stare-down. Israel had long-running enmities with the first named people groups. Tyre was little more to Israel than an enviable trade rival. The Ammonites, Moabites, Edomites, and Philistines were Jerusalem’s closest neighbors. Tyre was 100 miles north of Jerusalem. Still, Ezekiel’s audience would have found his predictions of Tyre’s downfall impossible. Tyre’s wealth had no limits, and the island stronghold was impenetrable.
