Ezekiel 27
This chapter is a lamentation over Tyre, describing the city's great wealth and immense network of global trade. Tyre is compared to a magnificent, beautiful ship built from the finest materials (cedars of Lebanon, oaks of Bashan) and manned by expert mariners from various nations. The prophet lists all the nations that traded with Tyre, from Tarshish to Syria. The lament concludes with the terrifying image of the mighty winds breaking the ship in the midst of the sea, signaling her complete ruin and disappearance forever.
