This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
These, either last named, or all that have been mentioned, though I conjecture the first is the true meaning, those rich, stately, and sumptuous nations traded with Tyre.
All sorts of things, of rich, precious things.
Blue clothes, which those nations delighted in, especially the Chaldeans and Assyrians, Eze_23:6.
Broidered work; bought of Egyptians, sold to Assyrians, &c.
Chests of cedar, curious yet strong, made on purpose to carry sumptuous apparel, bought up at Tyre, and in those chests conveyed to all parts of the Assyrian empire, and to the northern nations.
Bound with cords; it may refer to the chests mentioned, or to other sort of rich wares neatly made up, and bound for security with cords.
Among thy merchandise: by this it should seem these chests were not like our ordinary boxes, but as choice cabinets, and good merchandise.
