Tyre’s demise is that they would descend to the nether world and never again rise. After the ocean covered the island city then the inhabitants would descend to bor which is another Hebrew word for Sheol or the place of the dead. It was greatly feared by most people groups of the Old Testament. Some referred to it as the pit or the grave. Tyre’s descent to the grave or the pit would not be restful but it would lead to a horrible end. The absence of Tyre from the world’s system of commerce desired more than God would cause much dismay and uncertainty among the family of nation in the Mediterranean and the Mid-East who enjoyed the fruits of the gross materialism engendered by Tyre’s commercial prowess. Old Tyre with all its economic power and splendor would be gone. Her glory would be no more. There would still be a Tyre of sorts on the mainland but only ruins of what it once was and the island would be left under water.
The lessons from this destruction are important to realize. They are instinctively sensed as possibly pertaining to contemporary cultures and just as quickly dismissed from our thoughts. God’s lessons are humiliating to mankind. These examples are quickly dismissed by most people as too offensive to ponder and irrelevant or for a previous time and not now. This earth is now like Ancient Tyre of old and God is preparing to take His children to meet Him in the air. After which he will destroy what remains until He sets up His Kingdom under the Messianic King Jesus.
