Isa_23:8 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning [city], whose merchants [are] princes, whose traffickers [are] the honourable of the earth?

Ver. 8. The crowning city.] Heb., The crowning or crowned: a city of kings, {a} as Cyneas once said of Rome, This is a style better befitting heaven and the crowned saints there.

Whose merchants are princes.] Little kings, as we say. So they are at Venice; so the Hogens Moghens of the Netherlands.

{a} Vidi civitatem regum. See the state of kings.
