Ezequiel 25:12 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 25:12

Thus saith the Lord God
Concerning Seir or the Edomites, the prophecy concerning the Moabites being finished: because that Edom hath dealt against the house of Judah by taking
vengeance:
or, "revenging a revenge" ^F23; the Edomites bore an old grudge against the Jews, not only because their father Jacob had got the birthright and blessing from their father Esau; but because they were made tributaries to them in David's time, and afterwards severely chastised by Amaziah; these things they laid up in their minds, and vowed revenge whenever they had an opportunity; and now one offered at the destruction of Jerusalem, which they took: and hath greatly offended, and revenged himself upon them:
not only by rejoicing at the destruction of the Jews, but by encouraging the Babylonians in it; assisting them therein, joining with them in plundering the city, and in cutting off those with the sword who endeavoured to make their escape; see ( Psalms 137:7 ) ( Obadiah 1:12-14 ) .

10 Darei Moabe e os amonitas como propriedade ao povo do oriente. Os amonitas não serão lembrados entre as nações,

11 e a Moabe trarei castigo. Então eles saberão que eu sou o SENHOR.

14 Eu me vingarei de Edom pelas mãos de Israel, o meu povo, e este lidará com Edom de acordo com a minha ira e a minha indignação; Edom conhecerá a minha vingança. Palavra do Soberano, o SENHOR.
