Back to passage

On the poplars in her midst we hang our harps,

At that time Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, the typical life span of a king. At the end of seventy years Tyre will try to attract attention again, like the prostitute in the popular song:

For I, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel, tell you what will happen. I will put an end to the sounds of joy and gladness, to the glad celebration of brides and grooms in this land. You and the rest of the people will live to see this happen.’”

I will silence the noise of your songs; the sound of your harps will be heard no more.

Amos 6:7 TSK

Therefore they will now be the first to go into exile, and the religious banquets where they sprawl on couches will end.
