“And Hamath also shall border thereby; Tyrus, and Zidon, though it be very wise.”
Hamath also, which borders thereon; Tyre and Sidon, though she is very wise. This expansion of the judgment oracle to include the Phoenician coastal cities emphasizes the comprehensiveness of God's coming judgment against the nations that have opposed Israel. The reference to Tyre's wisdom acknowledges human pride and capability, which divine judgment will humiliate. This verse demonstrates that no human wisdom or power can withstand God's purpose to vindicate His people.
