Contextual Overview

10 "You have said, ‘These two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we will own them,' even when the Lord was there. 11 So as I live," says the Lord God, "I will punish you for your anger and the jealousy you showed because of your hate toward them. And I will make Myself known among them when I judge you. 12 Then you will know that I, the Lord, have heard all the bad things you have said against the mountains of Israel. You have said, ‘They are destroyed. They are given to us for food.' 13 You have spoken in pride against Me, with many words and I have heard you." 14 The Lord God says, "While the whole earth is filled with joy, I will destroy you. 15 As you had joy because the land of Israel was destroyed, so I will do to you. You will be destroyed, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know that I am the Lord."'

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And thou shall know that I am the Lord,.... By the judgments executed upon Edom, and so upon antichrist; for God is known by the judgments he executes, both by good and bad men, Psalms 9:16:

and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel; the people of Israel and Judah literally, and the churches and people of God figuratively: so antichrist is said to open his mouth in blasphemies, and to blaspheme the tabernacle of God, and them that dwell in heaven; that is, the church of God, and the saints of the most High; which are heard and observed by the Lord, and resented by him, and for which he will punish, Revelation 13:6:

saying, they are laid desolate, they are given up to consume; or, "for food" z; to possess and live upon; the inhabitants of them being carried captive or slain, so that there were none to enjoy the fruits of them; and therefore the Edomites concluded that the Israelites were forsaken of God, and that he would no more regard them, and that their land was theirs, which gave them great joy; see Revelation 11:10.

z לאכלה εις καταβρωμα, Sept.; "in cibum", Vatablus, Cocceius, Starckius, So Syr.
