Isa 23:1 · Douay-Rheims
“The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of the sea, for the house is destroyed, from whence they were wont to come: from the land of Cethim it is revealed to them.”
On this verse:
“Tyre was destroyed, in part, by Nabuchodonosor. Cyrus permitted all the captives of this, as well as of other countries, to return. — Cethim; Cyrus, or rather Macedonia. Merchants come thence no longer.”
