Revelation 18:18
And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning,....
See Gill on "Revelation 18:9"
saying, What city is like unto this great city? as before for magnificence and grandeur, so now for sorrow, desolation, and ruin; nor was any city like it for power and authority, for pride and luxury, for idolatry and superstition, blasphemy and impenitence; the like the sailors say of Tyre, Ezekiel 27:30 from whence this and other expressions are borrowed in this lamentation.
