“But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.”
The warning not to look on the day of your brother in the day of his misfortune and not to rejoice over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction indicates the moral prohibition against taking pleasure in the suffering of others. The command not to boast in the day of distress suggests that Edom actively celebrates Israel's fall.
