Aha Ancient Enemy Everlasting Hater Heights Heritage Ours Places Possession Says Spoken Thus Waste

36:2 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because the {a} enemy had said against you, Aha, even the ancient {b} high places are ours in possession:

(a) That is, the Idumean.

(b) That is Jerusalem, which for God's promises was the chief of all the world.

36:2 Because the enemy - Many were the enemies of God's people; but they so conspired in one design, that the prophet speaks of them as one, and particularly of Edom.

36:1-15 Those who put contempt and reproach on God's people, will have them turned on themselves. God promises favour to his Israel. We have no reason to complain, if the more unkind men are, the more kind God is. They shall come again to their own border. It was a type of the heavenly Canaan, of which all God's children are heirs, and into which they all shall be brought together. And when God returns in mercy to a people who return to him in duty, all their grievances will be set right. The full completion of this prophecy must be in some future event.
