[Easton 한국어 번역] (1.) 에서의 이름이다(에서 항목 참조). 창 25:30에는 “그 붉은 것을 나로 먹게 하라[히브리어 하아돔, 하아돔, 곧 ‘그 붉은 죽, 그 붉은 죽’] … 그러므로 에서의 별명은 에돔이더라”라고 되어 있다. 곧 붉다는 뜻이다. (2.) 이두매(사 34:5, 6; 겔 35:15). “에돔 들”(창 32:3), “에돔 땅”(창 36:16)은 산이 많은 곳이었다(옵 1:8, 9, 19, 21). 이곳은 세일 땅 또는 “세일 산”이라 불렸으며, 아라바 동쪽의 험준한 산지였다. 아카바만, 곧 엘라니틱만의 가장 안쪽에서 사해의 남쪽 끝까지 뻗어 있었으며(왕상 9:26), 여러 성읍 가운데 바위를 깎아 만든 셀라(해당 항목 참조)를 포함하였다. 셀라는 일반적으로 헬라어 이름인 페트라로 알려져 있다(왕하 14:7). 이곳은 거칠고 험준한 지역으로, 비옥한 골짜기들이 가로지르고 있다. 옛 수도는 보스라였다(사 63:1). 이 땅의 초기 주민들은 호리 족속이었다. 그들은 에돔 족속에게 멸망당하였다(신 2:12). 에돔 족속과 이스라엘 및 유다 왕들 사이에는 전쟁이 자주 있었다(왕하 8:20; 대하 28:17). 출애굽 당시 그들은 이스라엘 백성이 자기 땅을 통과하도록 허락해 달라는 요청을 매정하게 거절하였으며(민 20:14-21), 그 후로도 줄곧 그들에게 적대적인 태도를 유지하였다. 그들은 다윗에게 정복되었고(삼하 8:14; 왕상 9:26과 비교), 그 후에는 아마샤에게 정복되었다(대하 25:11, 12). 그러나 다시 독립을 되찾았으며, 후대에 유대 왕국이 쇠퇴하던 동안 이스라엘과 전쟁을 벌였다(왕하 16:6; 영어 개역본 난외주, “에돔 사람들”). 느부갓네살이 예루살렘을 함락하였을 때 그들은 갈대아 사람들의 편에 섰으며, 그 후 팔레스타인 남부를 침략하여 헤브론까지 점령하였다. 그러나 마침내 에돔도 점점 커지는 갈대아의 세력 아래 굴복하였다(렘 27:3, 6). 에돔에 관한 많은 예언이 있으며(사 34:5, 6; 렘 49:7-18; 겔 25:13; 35:1-15; 욜 3:19; 암 1:11; 옵; 말 1:3, 4), 이 예언들은 놀랍게 성취되었다. 그 땅의 현재 황폐한 상태는 이 예언들이 영감으로 주어졌음을 끊임없이 증언한다. 그들은 하나의 민족으로 1,700년 넘게 존재한 뒤 완전히 사라졌으며, 그들의 언어마저 영원히 잊혔다. 페트라에서는 “왕들이 궁정을 베풀고 귀족들이 모이던 곳에 아무도 살지 않으며, 그곳은 새들과 들짐승들과 기는 것들에게 몫으로 주어졌다.” 에돔 족속은 셈족으로, 혈통과 언어에서 이스라엘 백성과 밀접한 관계가 있었다. 그들은 세일 산에서 호리 족속을 몰아내었다. 그러나 창세기 36장을 보면 그들이 나중에 정복당한 주민들과 서로 혼인하였음이 분명하다. 에돔의 지파들은 유다 남부에도 정착하였는데, 갈렙과 옷니엘이 속한 그나스 족속(창 36:11)이 그와 같았다(수 15:17). 에돔의 남부는 데만으로 알려져 있었다.

[Easton] (1.) The name of Esau (q.v.), Gen. 25:30, “Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage [Heb. haadom, haadom, i.e., ‘the red pottage, the red pottage’] ...Therefore was his name called Edom”, i.e., Red. (2.) Idumea (Isa. 34:5, 6; Ezek. 35:15). “The field of Edom” (Gen. 32:3), “the land of Edom” (Gen. 36:16), was mountainous (Obad. 1:8, 9, 19, 21). It was called the land, or “the mountain of Seir,” the rough hills on the east side of the Arabah. It extended from the head of the Gulf of Akabah, the Elanitic gulf, to the foot of the Dead Sea (1 Kings 9:26), and contained, among other cities, the rock-hewn Sela (q.v.), generally known by the Greek name Petra (2 Kings 14:7). It is a wild and rugged region, traversed by fruitful valleys. Its old capital was Bozrah (Isa. 63:1). The early inhabitants of the land were Horites. They were destroyed by the Edomites (Deut. 2:12), between whom and the kings of Israel and Judah there was frequent war (2 Kings 8:20; 2 Chr. 28:17). At the time of the Exodus they churlishly refused permission to the Israelites to pass through their land (Num. 20:14-21), and ever afterwards maintained an attitude of hostility toward them. They were conquered by David (2 Sam. 8:14; comp. 1 Kings 9:26), and afterwards by Amaziah (2 Chr. 25:11, 12). But they regained again their independence, and in later years, during the decline of the Jewish kingdom (2 Kings 16:6; R.V. marg., “Edomites”), made war against Israel. They took part with the Chaldeans when Nebuchadnezzar captured Jerusalem, and afterwards they invaded and held possession of the south of Palestine as far as Hebron. At length, however, Edom fell under the growing Chaldean power (Jer. 27:3, 6). There are many prophecies concerning Edom (Isa. 34:5, 6; Jer. 49:7-18; Ezek. 25:13; 35:1-15; Joel 3:19; Amos 1:11; Obad.; Mal. 1:3, 4) which have been remarkably fulfilled. The present desolate condition of that land is a standing testimony to the inspiration of these prophecies. After an existence as a people for above seventeen hundred years, they have utterly disappeared, and their language even is forgotten for ever. In Petra, “where kings kept their court, and where nobles assembled, there no man dwells; it is given by lot to birds, and beasts, and reptiles.” The Edomites were Semites, closely related in blood and in language to the Israelites. They dispossessed the Horites of Mount Seir; though it is clear, from Gen. 36, that they afterwards intermarried with the conquered population. Edomite tribes settled also in the south of Judah, like the Kenizzites (Gen. 36:11), to whom Caleb and Othniel belonged (Josh. 15:17). The southern part of Edom was known as Teman.
