OUR FATHER WHO IS THE JUDGE OVER THE AFFAIRS OF MEN
The book of Amos chapter 1 verse 10 says this;
I will send fire on the walls of Tyre that will consume her fortresses.”
The prophet Amos, revealing the judgements that were to come to Israel and Judah and the surrounding regions, singled out the city of Tyre for a judgement of fire that would consume their fortresses to render them defenseless.
Tyre had undertaken to capture entire communities of the people of Edom and sell them as slaves even though they had a treaty of brotherhood between them.
Their disregard of a treaty and the wholesale destruction of communities and the enslavement of people invited judgement of destruction upon them.
