תֵּרֶ֨א אַשְׁקְל֜וֹן וְתִירָ֗א וְעַזָּה֙ וְתָחִ֣יל מְאֹ֔ד וְעֶקְר֖וֹן כִּֽי־הֹבִ֣ישׁ מֶבָּטָ֑הּ וְאָ֤בַד מֶ֙לֶךְ֙ מֵֽעַזָּ֔ה וְאַשְׁקְל֖וֹן לֹ֥א תֵשֵֽׁב׃
Ашкелон увидит это и будет бояться Газы, и ей будет больно, и Экрону будет стыдно за ее ожидания; И царь погибнет от Газы, и Ашкелон не будет заселен.
Rashi on Zechariah
Ashkelon shall see the downfall of Tyre and fear.
Rashi on Zechariah
for the one to whom she looked was ashamed For [Ashkelon] relied on Tyre, which was the head of the sons of Esau, and Ekron, too, belonged to Edom, as our Sages said in tractate Megillah (6a): “Ekron shall be uprooted (Zeph. 2:4).” This is Caesarea, which belongs to Edom, and it originally belonged to the Philistines.
