Context of Ezekiel 27:33

31They shave their heads in grief for you and dress themselves in burlap. They weep for you with bitter anguish and deep mourning. 32As they wail and mourn over you, they sing this sad funeral song: ‘Was there ever such a city as Tyre, now silent at the bottom of the sea? The merchandise you traded satisfied the desires of many nations. Kings at the ends of the earth were enriched by your trade. 34Now you are a wrecked ship, broken at the bottom of the sea. All your merchandise and crew have gone down with you. 35All who live along the coastlands are appalled at your terrible fate. Their kings are filled with horror and look on with twisted faces.

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 1-36The second part of the prophet’s message to Tyre (see study note on Ezekiel 26:1–28:19) is a funeral song. The song compares Tyre’s past glory with its present loss. It connects with the previous chapter in several ways. Both speak directly to Tyre. Both describe Tyre as a gateway and a center of trade (see Ezekiel 26:1–2). Both end with the same message: Tyre has come to a terrible end and will exist no more (compare Ezekiel 26:21).Read the comment
