SCRIPTURE

"Thou shalt die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Jehovah." — Ezekiel 28:10 (ASV)

You shall die the deaths of the uncircumcised Or the death of the wicked, as the Targum; the first and second death, temporal and eternal: the former by the hand of strangers, the Chaldeans, in various shapes; and the latter will follow upon it: it may denote the various kinds of death which the inhabitants of Rome will die when destroyed, some by famine, some by pestilence, and others by fire; when these plagues shall come upon her in one day, (Revelation 18:8). for I have spoken it, says the Lord God; and therefore it shall surely come to pass; strong is the Lord that will judge, condemn, and destroy mystical Babylon, or Tyre.
