There are fish remains in mountains.
Creation defies the laws of physics currently in operation as well. Things happened instantly at creation.
Adam, the day after he was created, was a man, not a baby or a boy, yet one day old. He was created with the appearance of age. Light beams were put in place from here to there, along with the light that was instantly seen. It did not take millions or billions of years for the light to travel across the galaxy.
Right now, off the top of my head, I don't have an answer to your question about Tyre. But there are multiple possible explanations to consider. 1. Same location or different location. 2. The message was to ancient Israel. Israel has been set aside for almost 2000 years. We are in between the 69th and 70th week of Daniel. So history, and whatever was said about how things would be during the time of the Jews is on pause.
There may be other possible explanations. I have no idea. Calling a different location the same name would not be a problem with regard to the prophecy.
There may be something in the technical uses of the word, which do not translate well to English. For example. There are 9 different Hebrew and Greek words which are translated into the 1 English word "repent". There is a difference of meanings of those words in the original languages which are lost in translation, and so the word is almost always misused by people, and used to promote false doctrine, because they are not using the appropriate original language meanings of the word in the appropriate contexts and conversations. People primarily use it with the intention of having the word mean "to turn from sin". However, that is a false translation. It says in Ezekiel to repent AND turn from sin. They are NOT the same thing. Yet, when people say repent, they almost always use the false meaning. to turn from sin, when they use the word. The most common meaning is to change one's mind. Change how you think, which produces a change in behavior.
