One silenced, destroyed, or brought to ruin; the state of being made desolate
This difficult word appears in Ezekiel's lament over Tyre, with both form and meaning debated. The context is a rhetorical question about Tyre's uniqueness, comparing the great maritime city in her destruction to something silenced or annihilated. The root relates to silence or stillness, possibly suggesting the deadly quiet after devastation. Textual variants and ancient versions struggled with this word—some reading 'the destroyed,' others 'the silenced.' The French 'destruction' and Spanish 'como silenciada' reflect this interpretive spread.

1. sense 1 — Ezekiel 27:32 poses the question: 'Who is like Tyre, like one silenced in the midst of the sea?' The comparison emphasizes the shocking reversal of the noisy, bustling trading port into deathly silence. Whether the term means 'destroyed,' 'silenced,' or both, the image is haunting: the city that filled the earth with commercial chatter now sits mute in her ruins. The maritime location ('midst of the sea') intensifies the isolation and completeness of her fall. 1×
