Jeremiah 49

Message: From the Lord

Time: To the Ammonites; To Edom  (Teman, Dedan, Bozrah); To Damascus (Hamath, Arpad); To Kedar and kingdoms of Hazor; To Elam

What the Lord is Saying: 
Ammonites - Rabbah of the Ammonites will be desolated. Why? Forsaking Israel
Edom - small among nations; despised among mankind; you will be brought down
Damascus - heard bad news (melt in fear); troubled; a fire will kindle in the wall of Damascus, devor Ben-Hadad
Kedar/Hazor - an everlasting waste; no man shall dwell there
Elam - break their bow; disaster brought against them

Problem:
Ammonites - You trusted in your own treasure.
Edom - Complete ruin of Edom

Promise:
Elam - One day they will be restored
