The word of the Lord came to me: 'Son of man, set your face toward Mount Seir, and prophesy against it, and say to it, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you, and I will make you a desolation and a waste, initiating the oracle against Edom (Mount Seir) and establishing God's opposition, with judgment taking the form of territorial devastation. The emphasis on Mount Seir (Edom's mountain territory) suggests that judgment extends to the very land Edom inhabited.
