Ezekiel26:20

20 When I shall bring thee down with them that descend into the pit , with the people of old time, and shall set thee in the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living .

Destroy thee, s[illegible: 1 letter]ay thee, and

Bury thee, throw thee into the Grave.

Who are long since dead, and gone to Eternity, the people of Eternity.

Another Description of the grave, from the scituation, and from the solitudes, or desolation of it. In brief when Tyre, as a dead man, shall be buried, forgotten, and perish utterly, and my hand hath done it, then it shall be known my hand hath avenged, and punisht all her Insolence, inhumanity, and covetousness, that she discovered, when she rejoiced at Ierusalems [illegible: 1 letter]all.

Restore the Beauty, Strength, Wealth of Israel, bring them back to Ierusalem, to worship in a rebuilt Temple, where they shall enjoy me.

Land of Iudaea, called Land of the Living, because a Land, where God will bless, and give Life by his Word, Ordinances, and Spirit: Thus different shall Tyre's Captivity, and Ierusalem's be.
