Cross-References
Rebekah was listening while Isaac spoke to his son Esau. So when Esau went to the field to hunt for game to bring home,
'Bring me some game and prepare a savory dish for me, that I may eat, and bless you in the presence of the LORD before my death.'
"Go now to the flock and bring me two choice young goats from there, that I may prepare them as a savory dish for your father, such as he loves.
Jacob answered his mother Rebekah, "Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man and I am a smooth man.
"Perhaps my father will feel me, then I will be as a deceiver in his sight, and I will bring upon myself a curse and not a blessing."
But his mother said to him, "Your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me."
Then Isaac his father answered and said to him, "Behold, away from the fertility of the earth shall be your dwelling, And away from the dew of heaven from above.
and take your father and your households and come to me, and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt and you will eat the fat of the land.'
"As for Asher, his food shall be rich, And he will yield royal dainties.
"How is the land, is it fat or lean? Are there trees in it or not? Make an effort then to get some of the fruit of the land." Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
The suburbs shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots. Or governors, as the Targum; and so the Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions: the allegory of a ship wrecked is still continued: the sense is, that such should be the cry of the principal men of the city when it should be taken, that the noise of it would be heard upon the continent, and in the towns and villages belonging to Tyre, which would make the inhabitants of them tremble: or,
at the sound of the cry of thy pilots the waves are moved, or "tremble" g; which beat very strong at the time of her fall into the sea.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The suburbs - Or, âprecincts.â Tyre rose from the midst of the sea; her âprecinctsâ were the surrounding waters and the adjoining coasts.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 27:28. The cry of thy pilots. — When the ship was dashed against the rocks by the violence of the winds and the waves, and all hope of life was taken away, then a universal cry was set up by all on board. I have heard this cry, and nothing more dismal can be imagined, when the ship by a violent tempest is driving among rocks on a lee shore. Then "All lost! cut away the boat!" is more dreadful than the cry of fire at midnight.
