Jeremiah 49:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 49:8

6 But ^aafterward I will bring back
The captives of the people of Ammon,” says the Lord.

Judgment on Edom

7 ^aAgainst Edom. Thus says the Lord of hosts:
^b“Is wisdom no more in Teman?
^cHas counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom ^dvanished?

8 Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, O inhabitants of ^aDedan!
For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him,
The time that I will punish him.

9 ^aIf grape-gatherers came to you,
Would they not leave some gleaning grapes?
If thieves by night,
Would they not destroy until they have enough?

10 ^aBut I have made Esau bare;
I have uncovered his secret places,
And he shall not be able to hide himself.
His descendants are plundered,
His brethren and his neighbors,
And ^bhe is no more.
