Gill's Notes on the Bible

And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning,....

:-

saying, what city is like unto this great city? as before for magnificence and grandeur, so now for sorrow, desolation, and ruin; nor was any city like it for power and authority, for pride and luxury, for idolatry and superstition, blasphemy and impenitence; the like the sailors say of Tyre, Ezekiel 27:30 from whence this and other expressions are borrowed in this lamentation.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And cried ... - That is, as they had a deep interest in it, they would, on their own account, as well as hers, lift up the voice of lamentation.What city is like unto this great city? - In her destruction. What calamity has ever come upon a city like this?

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Revelation 18:18. What city is like unto this great city! — Viz. in magnitude, power, and luxury.
