Commentary on Ezekiel 28:3
Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel sarcastically compares the king of Tyre to Daniel, famous for wisdom. No secret that they can hide from thee claims omniscience. This is obvious sarcasm—the king thinks himself all-knowing. Pride inflates self-assessment beyond reality. The king believes his commercial success proves superior intelligence. But worldly success doesn't equal wisdom. The fear of the LORD is wisdom's beginning (Proverbs 9:10); without it, all human cleverness is folly. Tyre's king mistook shrewdness for wisdom, tactical skill for true understanding.
