[ZIDON was reckoned the oldest of all the cities of Phoenicia, built as early as the reign of Ethbaal I., whose daughter, Ahab, king of Israel, married.* It was subject to the king of Tyre, and in its best days afterwards, though its fleets and commerce were considerable, yet it remained an inferior kingdom.† Her sins were great, however, and therefore the prophet Ezekiel is commanded to prophesy against her, ch. xxviii. 20-23.

There is, however, every reason to conclude, that Zidon symbolizes some inferior commercial nation, in the last times, situated on the borders of the sea; and that this prophecy has yet to receive its ultimate accomplishment; for the promise which immediately follows, of the restoration and happiness of Israel, has certainly never yet been fulfilled.]
