Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
set: Ezekiel 6:2, Ezekiel 25:2, Ezekiel 29:2
Zidon: Tyre was a colony of the Zidonians - See note on Isaiah 23:12, and consequently Zidon was a more ancient, though a less considerable city than Tyre; and it is probable that it was taken by the Chaldeans soon after the destruction of the latter. It was afterwards burnt to the ground by the inhabitants, to prevent it falling in the hands of Ochus. Ezekiel 27:8, Ezekiel 32:30, Genesis 10:15, Sidon, Isaiah 23:2-4, Isaiah 23:12, Jeremiah 25:22, Jeremiah 27:3, Jeremiah 47:4, Joel 3:4-8, Zechariah 9:2
Reciprocal: Ezekiel 21:2 - set Mark 7:24 - Tyre
Cross-References
Next Mephibosheth grandson of Saul arrived from Jerusalem to welcome the king. He hadn't combed his hair or trimmed his beard or washed his clothes from the day the king left until the day he returned safe and sound. The king said, "And why didn't you come with me, Mephibosheth?"
Mephibosheth said, "Oh, let him have it all! All I care about is that my master the king is home safe and sound!"
"If you won't take anything," said Naaman, "let me ask you for something: Give me a load of dirt, as much as a team of donkeys can carry, because I'm never again going to worship any god other than God . But there's one thing for which I need God 's pardon: When my master, leaning on my arm, enters the shrine of Rimmon and worships there, and I'm with him there, worshiping Rimmon, may you see to it that God forgive me for this."
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Son of man, set thy face against Zidon,.... An ancient city, near to Tyre, and in confederacy with it, greatly given to idolatry and superstition; and may design all the antichristian states in the communion of the church of Rome:
and prophesy against it; the prophet is bid to look towards this place with a stern countenance, as before against Tyre; threatening it with ruin, and prophesying of it, in the following manner.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Prophecy against Zidon. Zidon (mod. Saida) was more ancient than Tyre and was the original metropolis of Phoenicia Genesis 10:19, but in the times of Phoenician greatness it ever played a subordinate part. Only once Judges 10:12 do we find the “Zidonians” in conflict with Israel. The evil which they did was the seducing them to idolatry (compare Ezekiel 28:24), as in the case of Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Zidonians 1 Kings 16:31. The capture of Tyre by Nebuchadnezzar increased the importance of Zidon, which was a wealthy and flourishing town when Artaxerxes Ochus destroyed it. It has rallied from time to time, but has never attained to any great consequence, though not in such complete ruin as Tyre.
