| Isaiah 21:11 | The burden of Duma calleth to me out of Seir: Watchman, what of the night? watchman, what of the night? | Duma. That is, Idumea, or Edom. (Challoner) --- It was a city of that country, twenty miles from Eleutheropolis. (St. Jerome) --- Assaradon desolated Idumea the year following, ver. 16. The Jews absurdly apply to Rome what is said of Edom. (St. Jerome) (Calmet) |
