Ezekiel 25:8-11
Verse 8 Moab and Seir do say - Seir means the Idumeans. It appears that both these, with the Ammonites, had made a league with Zedekiah, Jer 27:3, which they did not keep; and it is supposed that they even joined with the Chaldeans. Verse 9 I will open the side - קתף ketheph, the shoulder, the strongest frontier place. Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim were strong frontier towns of Moab. Verse 10 That the Ammonites - The Syriac has, "That Rabbah of the sons of Ammon be not remembered."
