Ezekiel 28:24

And the house of Israel shall have no more a stumbling-block of bitterness, nor a thorn causing pain on every side round about them, of them that are against them: and they shall know that I am the Lord God.

Bitterness. Jezabel came hence; (4 Kings 16:31.) and the Phoenicians hemmed in the Israelites as much as possible, and fought against them. (Calmet) --- Sidon was near Tyre, and imitating her crimes was also punished.
