Contextual Overview

¹⁵For thus Yahweh, the God of Israel, says to me, "Take this cup of the wine of wrath from My hand and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it. ¹⁶They will drink and stagger and go mad because of the sword that I will send among them." ¹⁷Then I took the cup from the hand of Yahweh and made all the nations to whom Yahweh sent me drink it: ¹⁸Jerusalem and the cities of Judah and its kings and its princes, to make them a waste place, an object of horror, an object of hissing, and a curse, as it is this day; ¹⁹Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his princes, and all his people, ²⁰and all the foreign people, all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the land of the Philistines (even Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod), ²¹Edom, Moab, and the sons of Ammon, ²²and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the coastlands which are beyond the sea, ²³and Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who cut the corners of their hair, ²⁴and all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the foreign people who dwell in the desert,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Dedan, and Tema, and Buz,.... These seem to be places in Edom or Idumea, of whose destruction Jeremiah prophesies in Jeremiah 49:7; or rather in Arabia and Mesopotamia. Jerom reckons them among the Ishmaelites and Saracens, The persons from whom they descended are mentioned in Genesis 22:21;

and all [that are] in the utmost corners; that is, either of the above countries, or of the whole earth: or "all that had their hair shorn" m; or the corners of their beards; which Jerom says is applicable to the Saracens.

m כל קצוצי פאה "universis qui attonsi sunt in comam", V. L. "barbitonsis", Syr.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Dedan - See the Isaiah 21:13 note.

Buz - See Job 32:2 note.
