Clarke: Eze 28:22 - I am against thee, O Zidon

I am against thee, O Zidon - Sidon for a long time had possessed the empire of the sea and of all Phoenicia, and Tyre was one of its colonies; but in process of time, the daughter became greater than the mother. It seems to have been an independent place at the time in which Tyre was taken; but it is likely that it was taken by the Chaldeans soon after the former.

Tafsiran/Catatan -- Catatan Kata/Frasa (per Ayat)

Poole: Eze 28:22 - I am against thee // Zidon // I will be glorified // They // When I shall have executed judgments in her // Sanctified

To these heathen, yet neighbours of the Jews. the prophet might well suppose the name and greatness of the God of Israel was so known, as to command their attention when he speaketh.

I am against thee provoked by thy sins, I am an adversary to thee, and as such determined to proceed with thee.

Zidon a city in the north-west from Canaan, at the foot of Mount Libanus; a king’ s seat of old, and from which Tyre descended, as a swarm cast out of that hive, Isa 23:2 ; for it was a great city in Joshua’ s time, Jos 11:8 19:28 , and built by Sidon, Canaan’ s son, Gen 10:15 1Ch 1:13 ; a famous mart full of merchants, like Tyre, and as full of sin as riches.

I will be glorified when my judgments make my justice, power, holiness, sovereignty, and truth appear, both you Sidonians, and others about, shall confess my glory, and ascribe honour to me. I will vindicate my honour and glory, which by thy sins thou hast eclipsed, and I by judgments will illustrate, as Exo 14:4,17 .

They that dwell in thee, and round about thee, all that are concerned for thee, shall know that I am the Lord: see Eze 6:10 .

When I shall have executed judgments in her so late do sinners come to any due sense of God’ s power, justice, and majesty. The hardened sinners learn not by any other way but this, and by this too in the rigours and repeated executions of it.

Sanctified owned as holy, reverenced as just, obeyed as sovereign, and submitted to as wise, and mighty, and a hater of violence.

Haydock: Eze 28:22 - Sidon

Sidon. It gave rise to Tyre, yet was now inferior, though independent of it, (Isaias xxiii. 4.) or subject to Egypt. (Diodorus ii. 2.) ---

It was now pillaged.

Gill: Eze 28:22 - behold, I am against thee, O Zidon // I will be glorified in the midst of thee // and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have executed judgments in her // and shall be sanctified in her

The eternal Jehovah, the only true God, the Maker of heaven and earth; this is said by way of preface to the prophecy, and to assure of the fulfilment of it, as well as in opposition to the gods of the Zidonians:

behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; angry with thee, and will come out against thee in my wrath, because of thine idolatries and impieties. The Targum is,

"behold, I send my fury upon thee, O Zidon:''

I will be glorified in the midst of thee; not by the conversion of them; nor by acts of religious worship truly performed by them: by prayer, confession of sin, or thanksgiving; but by his judgments executed in the midst of them; by pouring out the vials of his wrath on them, as it follows:

and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have executed judgments in her; for the Lord is known, by the judgments he executes, to be that pure, holy, just, and sin avenging God he is, as well as omniscient and omnipotent; and this even Heathens and antichristian persons are obliged to acknowledge, Psa 9:15,

and shall be sanctified in her; that is, shall appear, be declared and owned, to be a God, just and holy, in all his ways and works.
