EZEKIEL 26:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.”
Now the coastlands tremble on the day of your fall; yes, the islands in the sea are dismayed at your departure, extending the scope of mourning to the entire maritime world, suggesting that Tyre's collapse affects commerce, navigation, and the entire network of sea-based civilization. The 'day of fall' suggests an apocalyptic moment when the order that depended on Tyre's commercial and military preeminence collapses. This underscores that God's judgment against individual nations has systemic reverberations affecting the entire international order.
