Ezekiel 27:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Ezekiel 27:6

4 Your borders are in the midst of the seas.
Your builders have perfected your beauty.

5 They¹ made all your planks of fir trees from ^aSenir;
They took a cedar from Lebanon to make you a mast.

6 Of ^aoaks from Bashan they made your oars;
The company of Ashurites have inlaid your planks
With ivory from ^bthe coasts of Cyprus.

7 Fine embroidered linen from Egypt was what you spread for your sail;
Blue and purple from the coasts of Elishah was what covered you.

8 “Inhabitants of Sidon and Arvad were your oarsmen;
Your wise men, O Tyre, were in you;
They became your pilots.

9 Elders of ^aGebal and its wise men
Were in you to caulk your seams;
All the ships of the sea
And their oarsmen were in you
To market your merchandise.
