Seir also] Edom and Seir were both names of Esau and his posteritie, and of his Countrey: and he was called Seir, because he was hairy, as the word Sehhir, or Segnir signifieth. In that the commination is made in both his names, it imports assurance of the thing: and if we take the words with any other but a verball distinction, it may be this; by Edom may be meant the whole Countrey of Esau, and by Seir, the place of his dwelling, his Court where he kept his residence; and so the Prophecie imports the totall conquest over the Edomites, since not so much as the Court or Palace of Edom, which was most strongly fortified, and carefully kept, should keepe out the power of Israel or Jacob; which was literally fulfilled by David, 1 Chron. 18. 13. but is chiefly to be understood in a spirituall sense, for a compleat victory of the Israel of God over all their enemies.
