2. 因為云云——在
Eze 28:6
重複地再提。歸結句從
Eze 28:7
開始。當時的「推羅君」是以土巴勒（Ithobal；即以斯巴勒二世 Ithbaal II）；這名字暗示他與腓尼基至高神巴力的密切關聯——他是巴力的代表。
我是神，我坐……神的座位……海中——正如神坐在祂天上的堅固保障中免受一切損傷，照樣我坐在風暴最猛的元素中不可攻陷的堡壘裡，能隨意控制它們，使它們為我的利益效力。這話雖然首先應用於推羅王——正如相似的話也應用於巴比倫王
(Isa 14:13, 14)——
卻在撒但及其在敵基督者身上的化身有著更遠更滿的應驗
(Da 7:25; 11:36, 37; 2Th 2:4; Re 13:6)。
推羅王這種超然升高的感覺，因推羅所處的海島被稱為「聖島」〔SANCONIATHO〕而更加助長——那島獻給赫拉克勒斯，地位如此神聖，以至殖民地視推羅為他們宗教以及政治存在的母城。希伯來文「神」是 El，即「大能者」。
然而云云——尖銳的諷刺。
心……如同神的心——你把自己的心當作神的心一樣。
英語原文
2. Because, &c.--repeated resumptively in
Eze 28:6.
The apodosis begins at
Eze 28:7.
"The prince of Tyrus" at the time was Ithobal, or Ithbaal II; the name implying his close connection with Baal, the Phœnician supreme god, whose representative he was.
I am a god, I sit in . . . seat of God . . . the seas--As God sits enthroned in His heavenly citadel exempt from all injury, so I sit secure in my impregnable stronghold amidst the stormiest elements, able to control them at will, and make them subserve my interests. The language, though primarily here applied to the king of Tyre, as similar language is to the king of Babylon
(Isa 14:13, 14),
yet has an ulterior and fuller accomplishment in Satan and his embodiment in Antichrist
(Da 7:25; 11:36, 37; 2Th 2:4; Re 13:6).
This feeling of superhuman elevation in the king of Tyre was fostered by the fact that the island on which Tyre stood was called "the holy island" [SANCONIATHON], being sacred to Hercules, so much so that the colonies looked up to Tyre as the mother city of their religion, as well as of their political existence. The Hebrew for "God" is El, that is, "the Mighty One."
yet, &c.--keen irony.
set thine heart as . . . heart of God--Thou thinkest of thyself as if thou wert God.

3. 以西結諷刺地暗指以土巴勒對自己和推羅人智慧的狂妄看法，彷彿勝過但以理的智慧——但以理的名聲甚至傳到推羅，被認為勝過迦勒底的智者。「你比……更聰明」，即在你自己的看法中
(Zec 9:2)。
沒有祕密——即不為人所知的富足
(Eze 28:4)。
可以隱藏的——即能被隱藏的事。
英語原文
3. Ezekiel ironically alludes to Ithbaal's overweening opinion of the wisdom of himself and the Tyrians, as though superior to that of Daniel, whose fame had reached even Tyre as eclipsing the Chaldean sages. "Thou art wiser," namely, in thine own opinion
(Zec 9:2).
no secret--namely, forgetting riches
(Eze 28:4).
that they can hide--that is, that can be hidden.

7. therefore--apodosis.

8. 坑——即海的深處；這意象取自海戰中被擊敗之人。

被殺的人——字面意思是「被刺穿」。即如被多重創傷刺穿而死的人所經歷的那種死亡。

8. the pit--that is, the bottom of the sea; the image being that of one conquered in a sea-fight.
the deaths--plural, as various kinds of deaths are meant

10. 未受割禮之人的死——即如未受割禮或不敬虔的外邦人所該受的那種死；或許也是如未受割禮之人所施加的那種死，在猶太人眼中是極大的恥辱
（撒上三十一4）； 對於那曾嘲笑受割禮的猶太人者而言，這是恰當的報應。
英語原文
10. deaths of . . . uncircumcised--that is, such a death as the uncircumcised or godless heathen deserve; and perhaps, also, such as the uncircumcised inflict, a great ignominy in the eyes of a Jew
(1Sa 31:4);
a fit retribution on him who had scoffed at the circumcised Jews.

12. 封閉了全備——字面意思是「你這封閉了完全之總和的」。「封閉」表示完成
（但九24）。
「全備」暗指完全的美，來自一個意為「測量」的希伯來文字根。即標準的人——按精確法則所造的。
英語原文
12. sealest up the sum--literally, "Thou art the one sealing the sum of perfection." A thing is sealed when completed
(Da 9:24).
"The sum" implies the full measure of beauty, from a Hebrew root, "to measure." The normal man--one formed after accurate rule.

13. 在伊甸園中——推羅王被描繪在他先前的高位（與隨後的傾覆相對），所取的意象來自伊甸園中原始的人——人性在最大程度上具有神形象的類型。
神的園——理想之美的典範
（結三十一8-9，三十六35）。
在推羅王這個人身上，人性以最大的屬世優勢再次受試。但正如亞當的情形，神美好的恩賜只淪為驕傲和自我的工具。
各樣寶石——如伊甸園中
（創二12），
「金子、珍珠和紅瑪瑙」。照樣推羅王也穿著東方君王風格的、鑲滿寶石的袍服。此處所提的九種寶石，對應大祭司胸牌上十二種寶石（代表十二支派）中的九種
（出三十九10-13； 啟二十一14、19-21）。
四行每行三種，第三行在希伯來文中被省略，但七十士譯本加以補充。在此也有對敵基督的進一步暗指，他將褻瀆地妄取我們神聖大祭司的職分
（亞六13）。
鼓笛——鈴鼓。
笛——字面意思是笛或簫的「孔」。
受造——即你登基之日。鈴鼓和一切歡樂的記號為你（「在你裡面」，即「與你同在和為你」）預備好了。你不必像別人那樣經過艱苦的奮鬥才能登上寶座。你一受造，就如亞當一樣被伊甸園的享受所環繞。FAIRBAIRN 將「笛」譯為「女性」（參
創一27），
即女性樂手。MAURER 不是從音樂角度解釋這希伯來文，而是從前面所提寶石的鑲嵌和鑲嵌座角度解釋。
英語原文
13. in Eden--The king of Tyre is represented in his former high state (contrasted with his subsequent downfall), under images drawn from the primeval man in Eden, the type of humanity in its most Godlike form.
garden of God--the model of ideal loveliness
(Eze 31:8, 9; 36:35).
In the person of the king of Tyre a new trial was made of humanity with the greatest earthly advantages. But as in the case of Adam, the good gifts of God were only turned into ministers to pride and self.
every precious stone--so in Eden
(Ge 2:12),
"gold, bdellium, and the onyx stone." So the king of Tyre was arrayed in jewel-bespangled robes after the fashion of Oriental monarchs. The nine precious stones here mentioned answer to nine of the twelve (representing the twelve tribes) in the high priest's breastplate
(Ex 39:10-13; Re 21:14, 19-21).
Of the four rows of three in each, the third is omitted in the Hebrew, but is supplied in the Septuagint. In this, too, there is an ulterior reference to Antichrist, who is blasphemously to arrogate the office of our divine High Priest
(Zec 6:13).
tabrets--tambourines.
pipes--literally, "holes" in musical pipes or flutes.
created--that is, in the day of thine accession to the throne. Tambourines and all the marks of joy were ready prepared for thee ("in thee," that is, "with and for thee"). Thou hadst not, like others, to work thy way to the throne through arduous struggles. No sooner created than, like Adam, thou wast surrounded with the gratifications of Eden. FAIRBAIRN, for "pipes," translates, "females" (having reference to
Ge 1:27),
that is, musician-women. MAURER explains the Hebrew not as to music, but as to the setting and mounting of the gems previously mentioned.

14. 受膏遮掩的基路伯——GESENIUS 從亞蘭文字根譯為「伸展的基路伯」。英文譯本從希伯來文字根，更為可取。「以膏油分別為聖歸主的基路伯」〔FAIRBAIRN〕。
遮掩——以西結作為祭司所用的意象取自猶太聖殿，其中基路伯遮掩施恩座，正如推羅王——在自己眼中是半神——將他的保護延伸到推羅的利益之上。基路伯——最高等動物存在的理想複合體，也是蒙救贖之人終極完全狀態的預表——被用作推羅王的形象，彷彿人性的理想。敵基督的僭越是更深的暗指，推羅王是其預表。參「坐在神的殿裡，自稱是神」
（帖後二4）。
我將你安置——不是你自己安置自己
（箴八16； 羅十三1）。
在神的聖山上——錫安，延續此意象。
在……發光的火石中——在他野心的想像中，他站在神的位置上，「腳下彷彿有平鋪的藍寶石」，而祂的榮耀如同「烈火」
（出二十四10、17）。
英語原文
14. anointed cherub--GESENIUS translates from an Aramaic root, "extended cherub." English Version, from a Hebrew root, is better. "The cherub consecrated to the Lord by the anointing oil" [FAIRBAIRN].
covereth--The imagery employed by Ezekiel as a priest is from the Jewish temple, wherein the cherubim overshadowed the mercy seat, as the king of Tyre, a demi-god in his own esteem, extended his protection over the interests of Tyre. The cherub--an ideal compound of the highest kinds of animal existence and the type of redeemed man in his ultimate state of perfection--is made the image of the king of Tyre, as if the beau ideal of humanity. The pretensions of Antichrist are the ulterior reference, of whom the king of Tyre is a type. Compare "As God . . . in the temple of God"
(2Th 2:4).
I have set thee--not thou set thyself
(Pr 8:16; Ro 13:1).
upon the holy mountain of God--Zion, following up the image.
in . . . midst of . . . stones of fire--In ambitious imagination he stood in the place of God, "under whose feet was, as it were, a pavement of sapphire," while His glory was like "devouring fire"
(Ex 24:10, 17).

直到罪孽……在你中間發現——如原始的人一樣，你因濫用神的恩賜而墮落，從而惹動神的怒氣。

15. perfect--prosperous [GROTIUS], and having no defect. So Hiram was a sample of the Tyrian monarch in his early days of wisdom and prosperity

結二十八14），（參
詩八十九39）。
英語原文
16. filled the midst of thee--that is, they have filled the midst of the city; he as the head of the state being involved in the guilt of the state, which he did not check, but fostered.

火……燒滅——他怎樣濫用他在「火石」中間的被抬舉地位

神也要使祂的「火」「燒滅」他。

so God will make His "fire" to "devour" him.

（創 10:15）。
推羅是從她分出來的分支，所以她與推羅同遭迦勒底人的傾覆。她之所以被單獨提及，是因為她的偶像崇拜（亞斯她錄、塔模斯或亞多尼）比推羅的更厲害地感染了以色列

Tyre was an offshoot from it, so that it was involved in the same overthrow by the Chaldeans as Tyre. It is mentioned separately, because its idolatry (Ashtaroth, Tammuz, or Adonis) infected Israel more than that of Tyre did
