These cities were known for their wealth, trade, and maritime prowess. In biblical times, they were significant centers of commerce and culture. The mention of "all the kings" suggests a comprehensive judgment against these rulers, indicating that God's judgment is not limited to Israel but extends to the nations. Historically, Tyre and Sidon were often in conflict with Israel, and their idolatrous practices were condemned by the prophets (Isaiah 23, <a href="/ezekiel/26.htm">Ezekiel 26-28</a>). The judgment against them is a reminder of God's sovereignty over all nations. In the New Testament, Jesus mentions Tyre and Sidon in the context of judgment, comparing their potential repentance to that of unrepentant Jewish cities (<a href="/matthew/11-21.htm">Matthew 11:21-22</a>).<p><b>the kings of the coastlands across the sea;</b><br>The "coastlands across the sea" likely refers to the distant lands and islands in the Mediterranean region, possibly including parts of Cyprus, Crete, and other areas influenced by Phoenician trade. This phrase emphasizes the far-reaching scope of God's judgment, extending beyond the immediate neighbors of Israel to more distant territories. The term "coastlands" is often used in the Old Testament to denote distant lands (<a href="/isaiah/42-4.htm">Isaiah 42:4, 66</a>:19). This reflects the biblical theme that God's authority and judgment are universal, not confined to a single nation or region. The inclusion of these distant lands in the prophecy underscores the comprehensive nature of divine justice and the accountability of all nations before God.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jeremiah.htm">Jeremiah</a></b><br>A prophet called by God to deliver messages of judgment and hope to the people of Judah and the surrounding nations.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/tyre.htm">Tyre</a></b><br>An ancient Phoenician city known for its wealth and strong fortifications.
