Ezekiel 25:10

"therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities which are on its frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kiriathaim,"

Key Reflection

Ezekiel 25:10 speaks of divine judgment against Moab, a neighboring nation to Israel. The verse envisions the destruction of Moab's cities, particularly those considered its most prestigious—Beth Jeshimoth, Baal Meon, and Kiriathaim. This prophecy reflects the broader theme in Ezekiel of God exacting vengeance on nations that have wronged or oppressed His people, illustrating His role as a just and avenging deity who maintains order among the nations.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Ammon and Moab, of common origin, whose lands had so often been interchanged, shall now share a common ruin. To “the men of the east”Ezekiel 25:4shall Moab with Ammon be given, that Ammon may be remembercd no more, and judgment be executed on Moab.
