10. dust<\/B>So thick shall be the”dust” stirred up by the immense numbers of “horses,”that it shall “cover” the whole city as a cloud. <\/P>
horses . . . chariots<\/B>Asin Eze 26:3-5<\/span>, NewTyre<\/I> on the insular rock in the sea (compare Isa 23:2<\/span>;Isa 23:4<\/span>; Isa 23:6<\/span>)is referred to; so here, in Eze26:9-11<\/span>, Old Tyre<\/I> on the mainland. Both<\/I> areincluded in the prophecies under one name. <\/P> wheels<\/B>FAIRBAIRNthinks that here, and in Eze23:24<\/span>, as “the wheels” are distinct from the”chariots,” some wheelwork for riding on, or for theoperations of the siege, are meant.<\/P><\/p>\n By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover thee<\/strong>,…. The dust raised by the feet of the horses so numerous, should rise in such quantities, and to such a height, as to be like a cloud, which should cover the city; an hyperbolical way of speaking, as Kimchi observes; as is also the following clause:<\/p>\n thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheels, and of the chariots<\/strong>; at the shouts of the horsemen upon every attack, and the rattling of the chariot wheels running to and fro, in carrying on their designs:<\/p>\n when ye shall enter into thy gates<\/strong>; that is, then particularly shall such a shout be made by the horsemen, and such rattling of the chariots, as will even make the walls of the city to shake; an excess of expression, signifying the prodigious noise made at their entrance into it: as men enter into a city wherein is made a breach; or, “according to the entrance of a city broken up” i; when its walls are broken down, and a gap is made; at which men rush in in great numbers, and with great force and clamour.<\/p>\n i “tanquam introitus civitatis diruptae”, Montanus; “dissipatae”, Pagninus; “quemadmodum ingrediuntur urbem disruptam”, Piscator; “quemadmodum intratur urbs praerupta”, Cocceius.<\/p>\n (10) Shall enter into thy gates.<\/strong>The whole description of this verse again implies that Nebuchadnezzar had contrived some way by which his armies, with horsemen and chariots, could march into the city, and the prophet gives a glowing poetic description of the effect of their entrance.<\/p>\n “Because his horses are so abundant their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he enters into your gates, as men enter a city in which a breach has been made. With the hooves of his horses he will tread down all your streets, he will slay your people with the sword, and the pillars of your strength will collapse to the ground.”<\/p>\n The contrast goes on. The horsemen would be so many that the dust raised by their hooves would cover the city. The multitude of horsemen, wagons and chariots would make the walls shake. The breach would be made and then the slaughter would begin and the strong parts of the city would be pulled down (or ‘the pillars of its strength’ may be its people). What is great Tyre in the light of this?<\/p>\n Eze 26:10 By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheels, and of the chariots, when he shall enter into thy gates, as men enter into a city wherein is made a breach.<\/p>\n Ver. 10. Thy walls shall shake.<\/strong> ] With the noise of one chariot, walls and windows seem to shake; what, then, with the rattle of so many? Methought I heard the noise and fright that shall be at the last day, said one, a<\/em> that was at the taking of a town in the low countries. The fragor and terror was so great, say the Turkish histories (speaking of a bloody battle between Amurath III and Lazarus, despot of Sernia), that the angels in heaven, so they are pleased to hyperbolise, amazed with that hideous noise, for that time forgot the heavenly hymns wherewith they always glorify God. b<\/em> <\/p>\n <\/p>\n When he shall enter into thy gates.<\/strong> ] As our Henry VIII did into Tournay, a city of France, which was ever counted so impregnable, that this sentence was engraven over one of the gates, Iannes ton me a perdu ton pucellage,<\/em> i.e., <\/em> Thou hast never lost thy maidenhead. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n a<\/em> A Lapide. <\/p>\n b<\/em> Turkish History.<\/p>\n the abundance: Eze 26:7, Jer 47:3 <\/p>\n shake: Eze 26:15, Eze 27:28, Nah 2:3, Nah 2:4 <\/p>\n enter: Jos 6:5, Jos 6:20 <\/p>\n as men enter into a city wherein is made a breach: Heb. according to the enterings of a city broken up. <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Isa 23:11 – stretched Eze 23:24 – with chariots Eze 31:16 – made<\/p>\n Eze 26:10. The great number of horses in the cavalry of the Babylonians is indicated by the dust they could stir up. It was to be so dense that it would envelop the people of Tyre, The noise would not literally shake the walls. The idea is that they would shake at the time of the noise, and the physical cause would be horses and chariots and other instruments and men of the invading army.<\/p>\n Nebuchadnezzar’s many horses would raise much dust and cause a loud commotion as they breached the walls, entered the city, and trampled the streets of the mainland town. Many people would die, and Tyre’s strong pillars would fall. The pillars may refer to the leading inhabitants of the town and or to the prominent pillars in the temple of Melkart there (cf. 1Ki 7:15). [Note: Wevers, p. 202. See Herodotus, Histories, 2:44.] <\/span><\/p>\n "Nebuchadnezzar destroyed mainland Tyre . . ., but not the island stronghold. However, other evidence indicates that the island surrendered to Nebuchadnezzar in 573-572 B.C." [Note: Dyer, "Ezekiel," p. 1279.] <\/span><\/p>\n By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheels, and of the chariots, when he shall enter into thy gates, as men enter into a city wherein is made a breach.
