Ezekiel 27:31
Context
31“Also they will make themselves bald for you
         And gird themselves with sackcloth;
         And they will weep for you in bitterness of soul
         With bitter mourning.

32“Moreover, in their wailing they will take up a lamentation for you
         And lament over you:
         ‘Who is like Tyre,
         Like her who is silent in the midst of the sea?

33‘When your wares went out from the seas,
         You satisfied many peoples;
         With the abundance of your wealth and your merchandise
         You enriched the kings of earth.

34‘Now that you are broken by the seas
         In the depths of the waters,
         Your merchandise and all your company
         Have fallen in the midst of you.

35‘All the inhabitants of the coastlands
         Are appalled at you,
         And their kings are horribly afraid;
         They are troubled in countenance.

36‘The merchants among the peoples hiss at you;
         You have become terrified
         And you will cease to be forever.’”’”

Humility is the Root of Charity, and Meekness the Fruit of Both. ...
Humility is the root of charity, and meekness the fruit of both. There is no solid and pure ground of love to others, except the rubbish of self-love be first cast out of the soul; and when that superfluity of naughtiness is cast out, then charity hath a solid and deep foundation: "The end of the command is charity out of a pure heart," 1 Tim. i. 5. It is only such a purified heart, cleansed from that poison and contagion of pride and self-estimation, that can send out such a sweet and wholesome

Second Great Group of Parables.
(Probably in Peræa.) Subdivision F. Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus. ^C Luke XVI. 19-31. [The parable we are about to study is a direct advance upon the thoughts in the previous section. We may say generally that if the parable of the unjust steward teaches how riches are to be used, this parable sets forth the terrible consequences of a failure to so use them. Each point of the previous discourse is covered in detail, as will be shown by the references in the discussion of the parable.]

Ezekiel
To a modern taste, Ezekiel does not appeal anything like so powerfully as Isaiah or Jeremiah. He has neither the majesty of the one nor the tenderness and passion of the other. There is much in him that is fantastic, and much that is ritualistic. His imaginations border sometimes on the grotesque and sometimes on the mechanical. Yet he is a historical figure of the first importance; it was very largely from him that Judaism received the ecclesiastical impulse by which for centuries it was powerfully
