49:7-22 The people of Edom were descendants of Esau, Jacob’s brother (Gen 32:3). The land of Edom lay south of Moab, in the highlands rising east of the Arabah Valley. The divine Judge exercised his right to hold every nation accountable. 49:7-8 Is there no wisdom: Edom was famous for its wise men, but they would suddenly appear foolish because they were unaware of the coming doom. • Teman and Dedan were cities of Edom.
