Ezekiel 38:13

1819–1905
Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take the spoil? hast thou assembled thy company to take the prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take great spoil?" — Ezekiel 38:13 (ASV)

Sheba, and Dedan ... . Tarshish.— The first two are districts of Arabia, and the last is probably the Tartessus in Spain. These names seem to be added to those of Ezekiel 38:5-6, to show that all the nations of the world sympathize in this attack upon the Church.
