Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus . . . in a pleasant place--that is, in looking towards Tyrus (on whose borders Ephraim lay) I saw Ephraim beautiful in situation like her (Eze. 26:1-28:26). is planted--as a fruitful tree; image suggested by the meaning of "Ephraim" (Hos 9:11). bring forth his children to the murderer-- (Hos 9:16; Hos 13:16).
