Ezekiel 35:5
3 Say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: “‘Look, I am against you, Mount Seir;I will stretch out my hand against youand turn you into a desolate ruin. 4 I will lay waste your cities,and you will become desolate.Then you will know that I am the Lord! 5 “‘You have shown unrelenting hostility and poured the people of Israel onto the blades of a sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of their final punishment. 6 Therefore, as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, I will subject you to bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you. 7 I will turn Mount Seir into a desolate ruin; I will cut off from it the one who passes through or returns.
Obadiah 1:13
11 You stood aloof while strangers took his army captive and foreigners advanced to his gates. When they cast lots over Jerusalem, you behaved as though you were in league with them. 12 You should not have gloated when your relatives suffered calamity. You should not have rejoiced over the people of Judah when they were destroyed. You should not have boasted when they suffered adversity. 13 You should not have entered the city of my people when they experienced distress. You should not have joined in gloating over their misfortune when they suffered distress. You should not have looted their wealth when they endured distress. 14 You should not have stood at the fork in the road to slaughter those trying to escape. You should not have captured their refugees when they suffered adversity. 15 “For the day of the Lord is approaching for all the nations! Just as you have done, so it will be done to you. You will get exactly what your deeds deserve.
Notes and References
"... The 8th-century prophet Amos inveighed against Edom for stifling natural brotherly compassion and pursuing Israel with the sword (Amos 1:11-12), and Isaiah viewed the nation as the archenemy of Israel (Isaiah 34; compare 63:1-6). Edom's expressions of hatred toward Judah apparently intensified in the latter's darkest hours. When Nebuchadrezzar razed Jerusalem, the Edomites had stood by clapping their hands with glee. Our text suggests that they played an active part in Judah's calamity, delivering her population over to the sword. The idiom 'to pour into the hands of the sword' combines the notions of violence and betrayal. Verse 5 refers to Judah's calamity with two special expressions. For the Edomites the ring of the first, at the time of their calamity, is ominous. While the etymology of 'calamity' is uncertain, the prophets capitalized on its sound to play on the name 'Edom'. Of the four occurrences relating to the fall of Jerusalem, three are found in oracles against Edom. (See Obadiah 13; Jeremiah 49:8; Ezekiel 35:5; compare Jeremiah 49:32 to Damascus) Ezekiel will maintain the play in the following verse with his fourfold reference to blood, dam. The second expression refers to Judah's fall as the time of their final punishment is a typically Ezekielian expression (compare 21:30, 34), employing not in the common sense of 'iniquity, guilt,' but as 'punishment' for guilt ..."
