Bible Comments

“Dedan was your trader in saddlecloths for riding,

Arabia and all the princes of Kedar, they were your merchants (the merchants of your hand - compare Ezekiel 27:15),

In lambs and rams and goats, in these were they your suppliers.

The traders of Sheba and Raamah, they were your dealers,

They traded for your wares with the best of all spices, and with all precious stones and gold.”

The various cities of Arabia are now mentioned, well known for their trading caravans. Tyre dealt with them all. Every known luxury passed through her hands.
