Edomites 이 거주하던 산의 이름이다. 원래는 이 곳에는
Horites 이 살고 있었다.
원래는 이 지역에 살던 사람의 이름이 세일이었고 그 후손들이 거주하면서 지역의 이름이 된 것으로 볼 수 있다.
20 These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan , Shobal, Zibeon , Anah,
21 The Horites also lived in Seir in the past, but the children of Esau succeeded them. They destroyed them from before them, and lived in their place, as Israel did to the land of his possession, which Yahweh gave to them.)
그곳을
Esau 가 점령하고 거주지로 삼았다. 하나님은 출애굽시에 이스라엘 민족이 에돔을 침략하는 것을 허락하지 않으셨다.
2 Yahweh spoke to me, saying,
3 “You have encircled this mountain long enough. Turn northward.
4 Command the people, saying, ‘You are to pass through the border of your brothers, the children of Esau , who dwell in Seir ; and they will be afraid of you. Therefore be careful.
5 Don’t contend with them; for I will not give you any of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on, because I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession.
6 You shall purchase food from them for money, that you may eat. You shall also buy water from them for money, that you may drink.’ ”
7 For Yahweh your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He has known your walking through this great wilderness. These forty years, Yahweh your God has been with you. You have lacked nothing.
후에 다윗 시대에 정복을 하였다.
13 David earned a reputation when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand men of the Syrians in the Valley of Salt .
14 He put garrisons in Edom. Throughout all Edom, he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David . Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
