About 586 BC, the prophet Ezekiel made some predictions about the future of Tyre.
He said that:
1. Tyre would be attacked by many armies.
2. Tyre would be pulled down and scraped away.
3. Tyre would become a place for fishermen to spread their nets.
4. Tyre would be attacked by Nebuchadnezzar.
5. Invaders would build a fort against her.
6. Tyre's buildings would be laid in the sea.
7. Tyre would disappear, never to return.
