  10. Tyre Tyre Luke 10:13 (NKJV) 13 "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. Matthew 11:21 (NKJV) 21 "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. • Tyre: Jesus referred to this city and Sidon when he pronounced “woes” on the cities of Chorazin and Bethsaida because the inhabitants would not repent despite the miracles Jesus had performed (Mat. 11:21; Luke 10:13)

  11. Location and Setting - Tyre The home of the sea-faring Phoenicians, Tyre guarded the eastern Mediterranean coast, serving as an important seaport, not only for Phoenicia, but also for Israel and Syria. Tyre’s identity was often linked with Sidon, the other major Phoenician seaport, twenty-five miles to the north. Together with Tyre and Sidon, the coastal cities of Byblos and Arvad farther to the north formed the four major seaports of the Phoenicians. Each city functioned as an independent city-state, with little political unity among them. In addition to its being an important seaport, the city of Tyre was known for cedar timber from the mountains of Lebanon, just inland from the coast. Other industries included the processing of purple dye from murex shells, a shipping fleet, and the mining of tin, silver and copper.

In Ezekiel 27:8; Ezekiel 27:11, "the men of Arvad" are among the mariners of the ship, namely, Tyre. Arvad is the isle Ruad, off Tortosa, two or three miles from the Phoenician coast, at the N. end of the bay above Tripoli. It is elevated and rocky, but hardly a mile round. Strabo mentions Arvad's likeness to Tyre, and the superior seamanship of its people. The inhabitants still, to the number of a thousand, are employed as pilots, shipbuilders, sponge divers, and sailors. There are remains of the sea walls, some of the stones 12 feet long by 10 high, not beveled, but indented with deep grooves on the upper surface, one groove square, three semicircular.
