Scripture focus
Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart [is] lifted up, and thou hast said, I [am] a God, I sit [in] the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou [art] a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
Ezekiel 28:2 — KJV
Prince. Heb. nagid, “a chief,” “a leader.” According to Josephus, the Tyrian king at the time of Nebuchadnezzar’s siege was Ethbaal (Against Apion i. 21). However, the prophet is doubtless decrying the insolence and inordinate pride of Tyre’s leaders generally.
The seat of God. Probably a reference to the natural beauty and strategic position of Tyre. Some see significance in the phrase from the point of view that the temple of Baal Melkarth was situated there.
