Behold . Ezekiel 26 . 3-6 , contain a summary prediction of what befell both the continental and insular Tyre , during a long succession of ages. The former was totally destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar , after a siege of thirteen years , bc 573; and the latter , which arose out of its ruins , after seventy years recovered its ancient wealth and splendour , as foretold by Isaiah . Isaiah 23 . 15-17. After it was taken and burnt by Alexander , bc 332 , it speedily recovered its strength and dignity , and nineteen years afterwards withstood both the fleets and armies of Antigonus. Agreeably to the prophetic declarations . Psalm 45 . 12 , Psalm 72 . 10. Isaiah 23 . 18. Zechariah 9 . 1-7 , it was early converted to Christianity; and after being successively taken by the Saracens , Christians , Mamalukes , and Turks , in whose hands it still remains , it became "a place for the spreading of nets."
