Deut.32:31. For their rock is not as our Rock. Even our enemies themselves being judges.

     "Tarshish" was an ancient Phoenician city in southern Spain. Tyre received many of its various metal ore by Tarshish.

 

 Psalms 72:10. The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

 

Has a reference to the kings of Tarshish of the isles also bringing presents to our Lord and Saviour when He returns to rule. So Tarshish represents those nations of the area around the Mediterranean who dealt commerce with Tyre.
     "Chittim" ('Kittiyiy' meaning 'the bruisers'), though historically represented Cyprus, is more generally applied to the islands of the Mediterranean, and specifically the descendents of Javan, son of Japheth who was grandson to Noah. For future prophecy, 'Chittim' represents God's 'bruisers' which come against the 'antichrist' and his false reign of the future.

 Dan.11: Read All.

 

 Romans 16:20. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

 

 That event is of a spiritual war, not a physical one Ephesians 6 for the Armour God's elect are to have on for that event.

Isa 23:2    Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
3    And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, is her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.

     Because of a supposed safe dwelling of that island 'rock' of Tyrus, it served as an ideal place of world commerce. Tyre had double walls rising to 150 ft.¹”Be still", or 'be silent' (Hebrew 'daman'), God is telling those of Tyre, for their isle will be "laid waste".
     The "seed of Sihor" refers to the fertile lands which the Nile River supported, as grain in abundance was one of Tyre's major trade commodities. And because of its location, commerce, and seat of the controllers, Tyre became "a mart of nations".
     This 'system' of merchants is still with us today, as those of Tyre were scattered to other lands after the island destruction. The inhabitants of Tyre only had to relocate their ships of commerce. This is not about the honest merchants of the world. It is concerning those who seek to control 'all' economies of the world. The Kenite wants power over it 'all'. It shouldn't be difficult to see the state of the 'world global economy' today, and how this basis of Tyre is in control again. The stronger economies of nations now bailout other weaker nation's debt, passing the cost down to the consumer and taxpayer, the IMF (International Monetary Fund) is instrumental in that work. And commercial banks are allowed to fabricate money just by a book entry (research the 'Mandrake' mechanism of fiat money banking).

Isa 23:4    Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, even the strength of the sea, saying, "I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish up young men, nor bring up virgins."
5    As at the report concerning Egypt, so shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.

     When God brought the destruction of Tyre, all its splendour vanished. That past prophecy was fulfilled, exactly as our Father said it would occur:

Ezek 26:3     Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; 'Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth
