- Malachi 1:3
but Esau I have hated, and I have made his mountains a wasteland and left his inheritance to the desert jackals.”
Commentary on Malachi 1:32 voices
“And I made his mountains a waste, and his heritage for the jackals of the wilderness - o Malachi attests the first stage of fulfillment of Joel’s prophecy (Joe 3:19, vol. i. pp. 214, 215), ‘Edom shall be a desolate wilderness.’ In temporal things, Esau’s blessing was identical with Jacob’s; ‘the fatness of the earth and of the dew of heaven from above;’ and the rich soil on the terraces of its mountain-sides, though yielding nothing now except a wild beautiful vegetation, and its deep glens, attest what they once must have been, when artificially watered and cultivated.”
Albert Barnes · Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)Evangelical
“His heritage - Mount Seir with the neighbouring mountains. Waste - By Nebuchadnezzar's arms five years after the sacking of Jerusalem, and whereas Jacob's captivity returned, and their cities were rebuilt, Esau's never were. The dragons - Creatures which delight in desolate places, by which the utter desolation of Esau is signified.”
John Wesley · Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
