Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Jeremiah 25:21

Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Jeremiah 25:21

Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon,

The Edomites were the posterity of Esau the son of Isaac, to whom God had given a land which they inherited, and he would not suffer the Israelites to make their way through them by force, when they denied them a passage through their country; now he threatens their ruin, as also Jer 49:7; and Obadiahs prophecy was against them, where their triumphing in the captivity of the Jews is mentioned as one thing that had provoked God against them. The Moabites and Ammonites were descended from Lot. Jer 48 is an entire prophecy against Moab; they had lived in long prosperity, as appears there, Jer 25:12; so had the Ammonites, against whom also Jeremiah prophesied particularly, Jer 49:1-7.

He adds —

Jer 25:21 Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon,

Ver. 21. Edom and Moab, &c. ] By the destruction of all these nations we may make a conjecture at the destructiou of all the wicked, when Christ shall come to judgment. All that befalleth them in this world, is but as drops of wrath forerunning the great storm: or as a crack foretokening the fall of the whole house. Here the leaves only fall upon them as it were, but then the body of the tree in its full weight to crush them for ever.
