Ezekiel 27:2

2. A lamentation Rather, dirge. (See also Ezekiel 19:1; Ezekiel 26:17; Ezekiel 28:12; Ezekiel 32:2.) So full of lifelike detail is this “dirge” that Dr. Plumptre can say, “Ezekiel, we must believe, had at some time or other in his life trod the sinful streets of the great city and noted the mingled crowd of many nations, in many costumes that he met there, just as we infer from Dante’s vivid descriptions of the dockyards of Venice ( Inferno, Ezekiel 21:7-15) that he had visited that city.”
