Ezekiel 25:10 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 25:10

Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites, and I will give
them in possession
Or, "against the Ammonites", as the Targum; that is, way should be made for the same people of the east, the Chaldeans or Arabians, that came against the Ammonites and destroyed them, to enter into the land of Moab and possess it, as they had done the land of Ammon: that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the nations:
the name of that people, which is entirely lost; and Moab likewise, which underwent the same fate.

9 therefore, look! I [am] opening the side of Moab from the cities on its frontier, [the] glory of [the] land: Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kiriathaim.

10 I will give it to the people of the East in addition to the {Ammonites} as a possession, so that the {Ammonites} will not be remembered among the nations.

11 And on Moab I will execute punishments, and they will know that I [am] Yahweh."

12 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: "Because of the doings of Edom in avenging himself [with] vengeance for the house of Judah, and [so] they became very guilty and they avenged themselves on them,"
