The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee; thou shalt be a terror, and never [shalt be] any more.
Ver. 36. The merchants shall hiss at thee.] Either as astonied at thee, or rather as deriding thee, a like as he who seeth another fall into the dirt, first pitieth him and then jeereth him. See the like, Jeremiah 19:8; Jeremiah 49:17 .
Thou shalt be a terror.] Because God hath hanged thee up in gibbets, as it were. Or thou wast a terror once, but now a scorn.
And never shalt be any more.] See on Ezekiel 26:14 .
