Ezekiel chapter 27

vs 19

So apparently cassia is like a cinnamon type thing, and calamus is a spicy aromatic thing. Who knew?

vs 20

Nice to have a trade item.

vs 21

Meaty goodness. I guess Arabia had lots of herders, to have so much livestock to trade.

vs 22

That's serious rich stuff.

vs 23

Long list of places. Perhaps they were usually grouped together?

vs 24

Ahhh, rugs. It's the middle east, someone had to trade rugs.

vs 25

Obviously you would need some pretty awesome ships for all this, considering that there is so much stuff coming into and out of this city.

vs 26

Uh oh. See, halfway through verse 25 I think it started talking about Tyre as a boat again, and now God is talking about the destruction of that boat, perhaps in terms of the destruction of it's trade. The east wind is probably Babylon, coming from the east.

vs 27

So now we see the picture of sinking to the bottom of the sea realised rather fully. If Tyre is a boat, Babylon is about to sink it.
