+### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Ezekiel28.11-19)
+
+The Lord, through Ezekiel, continues the pattern of giving a prophecy of
+judgement and then raising a lament over the judged. And like the previous
+lament over Tyre the city, this one extols the virtues of the king of Tyre
+before deconstructing them. The king of Tyre is compared to a guardian cherub,
+placed in a perfect environment and adorned with beautiful wealth.
+
+I admit to being thrown off by the comparison to a cherub instead of Adam,
+considering the explicit reference to Eden in verse 13. But the mentions of
+"stones of fire" (_vv. 14, 16_) that the cherub walks among are more
+appropriate for an angelic being than a man. The notes in the Reformation Study
+Bible mention that some consider this lament a comparison to the fall of Satan,
+which is plausible to me, at the least. If that's the case, there are some
+implications in calling Satan a "guardian cherub", and it makes the latter half
+of this lament eschatological in nature.
+
+In verse 15, unrighteousness is found in the cherub. Violence abounds and
+beauty engenders pride. This corrupted the cherub's wisdom, and because of all
+this the Lord casts him down. The kings of the earth see the downfall and the
+consuming fire that destroys him, and they are apalled.
