Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre? words of admiration: who and where is he that could imagine or durst attempt such a thing as this? This is the work of God, as is expressed, Isaiah 23:9, and not of man. The crowning city; which was a royal city, Jeremiah 25:22, and called a kingdom, Ezekiel 28:2,12, and carried away the crown from all other cities, and crowned herself and her, citizens with glory and delights. Whose merchants are princes; equal to princes for wealth, and power, and reputation.
