      1  The judgment of Moab,
     7  for their pride;
    11  for their security;
    14  for their carnal confidence;
    26  and for their contempt of God and his people.
    47  The restoration of Moab.
    
    
    VERSE 1

    VERSE 4 
     - Moab.
      This prophecy against Moab, as well as the following ones
       concerning Ammon, Edom, and the neighboring countries, seem
       to have been fulfilled during the long siege of Tyre by
       Nebuchadnezzar.  Josephus places these events five years
       after the destruction of Jerusalem.

    VERSE 5 
     - Luhith.
      Luhith is placed by Eusebius between Areopolis, or Ar, and
      Zoar.  (See ver. 34.)  It was evidently situated upon a
      height; as was also Horonaim, which was probably not far from
      Luhith.

    - continual weeping.  Heb. weeping with weeping.

      {Baddim,} as Lowth observes, sometimes means those who
      pretend to the art of divination.  Though the soothsayers of
      Moab, upon whose skill she relies, promise him success, yet
      in the event it will appear there was no truth in what they
      said.

      Moab has long since ceased to be a nation; while the Jews,
      agreeably to the Divine promise, (ch. 28 46:28,) though
      successively subdued and oppressed by the Egyptians,
      Assyrians, Babylonians, Syro-Macedonians, and Romans, (which
      have also all passed away, and are no more,) and dispersed
      over the face of the earth, subsist to this day as a distinct
      people from all the nations of the world!

    VERSE 47 
     - Yet will I bring.
      Many of the Moabites were afterwards restored to their
      country by Cyrus, as we learn from Josephus; but they never
      were restored to their national consequence; and perhaps
      their restoration in the latter days refers to the conversion
      of their scattered remnants to the gospel.
