49:9-11 Harvesters customarily left some of the crop for the poor (Lev 19:9-10); thieves would take only those grapes they could get quickly and easily. The invaders would take their time and mercilessly strip Edom bare, leaving only ruin behind them. However, the Lord promised to be merciful to the defeated nation’s orphans and widows.
