Tyre and Babylon

Tyre was the greatest of the great port cities of ancient Phoenecia.

When Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon tried to conquer Tyre, Tyre held out for 13 years!

The siege only ended when Nebuchadnezzar offered Tyre favorable enough terms of surrender- all that time Tyre was not trying to maintain their independence, but negotiate for a better position in Nebuchadnezzar's Empire!

Which they did! Successfully!

Wow!

The greatest of the beautiful, glittering Phoenecian cities- which all thrived under Assyrian and Babylonian rule- and had their Golden Age under Persian rule!

God loves you!

Sincerely,
