Ezekiel 26:18

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

It is noticeable that the commercial policy of Tyre is not represented as having been oppressive. The isles do not exult in their deliverance, but mourn over the captured city whose commerce had contributed to their prosperity.

The "terror" of Ezekiel 26:17 is rather the impression of awe and wonder made on all who came to it.
