### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Ezekiel28.20-26)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sidon is a city often mentioned alongside Tyre. It was a trading partner some
|
||||||
|
25 miles south on the coast from there. This short prophecy warns the Sidonians
|
||||||
|
that the fate of Tyre is also coming to them soon. Pestilence and violence will
|
||||||
|
overwhelm them and they shall know that Yahweh is the Lord. Why does He do
|
||||||
|
this? No specifics are given, but they have treated Israel with contempt in
|
||||||
|
some way, hurting them as a thorn or briar.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At long last, some comfort and hope is given to the house of Israel. The Lord
|
||||||
|
declares He will gather His chosen people back into the land He had promised to
|
||||||
|
them, and His holiness will be manifested there. All of Israel's adversaries
|
||||||
|
will be eliminated so they will be able to dwell in peace and security.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

Establish Your kingdom so that all the righteous may dwell in peace.
