Ezekiel 35:7 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 35:7

Thus will I make Mount Seir most desolate
By shedding the blood of the inhabitants of it; and as Rome will be, when it will be utterly burnt with fire, as that city will, and the flesh of the whore also, and made desolate; and when all the vials shall be poured out on the antichristian states under her jurisdiction, ( Revelation 16:1 ) ( 17:16 ) ( 18:8 ) : and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth:
every traveller that passeth to and fro; it shall no more be frequented by merchants; nor will there be any merchandise any more in it, ( Revelation 18:11 ) .

Ezekiel 35:7 In-Context

5 Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed [the blood of] the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time [that their] iniquity [had] an end:

6 Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will prepare thee to blood, and blood shall pursue thee: since thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.

7 Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.

8 And I will fill his mountains with his slain [men]: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.

9 I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
