| Psa 137:7 | “the Edomites.” This refers to the people from the area of Edom, who no doubt rejoiced when Babylon conquered Judah, but also “Edom” was used by the figure synecdoche of the part for Judah’s enemies as a whole. It was not just Edomites that rejoiced when Judah was destroyed. [See word study on “synecdoche.”] (top) |
