“The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market: and thou wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas.”
Ezekiel 27:25 (KJV)
Commentary on Ezekiel 27:25
The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market refers to Tarshish ships (large merchant vessels capable of long voyages) trading at Tyre and celebrating the city's wealth. Thou wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas summarizes Tyre's peak prosperity and fame. The irony: this glory is past tense from God's perspective—already finished, already fallen. God speaks of future judgment as accomplished fact because His decrees are certain. What God declares done is done, regardless of present appearances. Tyre's glory is already past, though she doesn't know it yet.
