Yirmeyah 49:10 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 49:10

But I have made Esau bare
By the hand of the Chaldeans; stripped him of everything that is valuable; of his cities, castles, villages, people, wealth, and treasure: I have uncovered his secret places;
where either his substance was hid, or his people; these were made known to their enemies, who seized on both: and he shall not be able to hide himself;
even in his deep places, in the caves and dens of the earth, but his enemy shall find him out: his seed is spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours;
his children, as the Targum; and his brethren, the Ammonites and Moabites; and his neighbours, the Philistines; or as many as were with him, and belonged unto him: and he [is] not:
his kingdom is not; he is no more a people and nation, but all destroyed by the sword, or carried captive; or there should be none left of his brethren, and neighbours, and friends, to say to him what follows: "leave thy fatherless children" So Kimchi and Ben Melech say this phrase is in connection with the ( Jeremiah 49:11 ) .
