Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
Psalms 48:7 — KJV
Ships of Tarshish. A second comparison to show God’s power as revealed in the confusion and dispersal of the enemy. Tarshish is usually identified with the classical Tartessus in southern Spain, north of Cadiz, though other places also may be meant. “Ships of Tarshish,” formerly held to be ships able to sail to Tartessus, are now held to be “refinery ships” (see on 1 Kings 10:22). As a storm wrecked these vessels, so God swept the enemy aside.
