INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL 35 This chapter is a prophecy of the destruction of Edom, which is threatened, Eze 35:1, the cause of it, their hatred and slaughter of the Israelites, Eze 35:5, their claim of the lands of Israel and Judah for possession, Eze 35:10, their blasphemies against the people of God, and the Lord himself, Eze 35:12, the aggravation of their ruin, which was irretrievable; that when it was well with others, it should go ill with them; by way of just retaliation, Eze 35:14.
