Ezekiel 27:4 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Weak borders, which an enemy easily breaks through, are a great defect in a state; well, Tyre, thou art well secured here, thine are in the sea that surrounds and secureth thee. Thy builders; thy first founders, whoever they were; Agenor king of Phoenice chose wisely to build a city in safety: or by builders may be meant those who in aftertimes did add to the first foundation: these were masters of their art, and added this to the natural strength and beauty of the place; thus thou art perfected at home.

Ezekiel 27:4

4 Thy borders are in the midstb of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.
