2. Mount Seir = mountain range in Jordan, from southern end of Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba.
  1. Territory inhabited by Edomites. (Descendants of Esau)
3. Judged for: [1] Enduring hostility toward Israel [2] Because Edom assisted Nebuchadnezzar when he destroyed Jerusalem [3] And they coveted the land of Israel & Judah (10,11)
