Ezekiel 26:21 Meaning and Explanation

'I will make thee a terror' means Tyre will become a symbol and warning to all others—her name will be invoked in connection with God's judgment. Rather than being remembered for her greatness, she will be remembered as an example of what happens to those who oppose God and exploit others. This represents the ultimate inversion of Tyre's ambition to be remembered as glorious and powerful.

The final statement—'thou shalt be no more'—is absolute. Tyre will cease to exist as an inhabited city, a political power, or a significant presence in the world. Though people may seek the ruins or try to find records of her, she will be effectively gone. The finality expressed in 'shalt thou never be found again' emphasizes the permanence of judgment. This concluding verse reiterates that God's word, once spoken, cannot be reversed or overcome. Tyre's complete erasure serves as the ultimate testimony to God's sovereignty and justice.
