Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Jeremiah 49:7
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
7. Concerning Edom —a distinct prophecy, copied in part from Obadiah, but with the freedom of one himself inspired and foretelling a later calamity. Obadiah's was fulfilled probably in Sennacherib's time (compare Isaiah 34:5 ; Amos 1:11 ); Jeremiah's about the same time as his preceding prophecies ( Jeremiah 49:12 ; Ezekiel 25:12 ). wisdom —for which the Arabs and the people of Teman (a city of Edom) in particular, were famed ( Genesis 36:15 ; 1 Kings 4:30 ; see Job, everywhere; Obadiah 1:8 ). vanished —literally, "poured out," that is, exhausted (compare Obadiah 1:8- : , Margin ) [MAURER]. Or, as the kindred Ethiopic word means, "worn out" [LUDOVICUS DE DIEU]. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-8" class="com-number"
