This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





I will send; the pestilence is one of God’s arrows, and he sends it wheresoever it walks; it is one of his sore judgments, and wasteth where it cometh.



Pestilence; the most dreadful of diseases, because most deadly, swift, and comes so immediately from the wrath of God offended with men; this pestilence attends on war, and seldom faileth to make havoc in besieged towns or cities.



Blood; bloody war by an enemy, that shall bring the war to the gates, nay, into the streets of Zidon.



Be judged; fall, be cast down, punished, in the midst of the city.



By the sword; by her enemy’s sword prevailing and conquering.



On every side; a description either of the siege that Zidon should suffer by, or pointing out the multitude of her enemies on every side agreeing against her.
