Phrase of Scripture   Correlating Passages TSK Help

And other ten thousand   No intimation is given on what account, or on what provocation, this most cruel conduct towards the prisoners of war was adopted. The enmity between Israel and Edom seems to have been reciprocal and deeply malignant. The victorious king and his army considered every individual of Edom as a traitor and rebel; and so adjudged them to death, and acted on this judgment. But their conduct was wholly inexcusable, and could only perpetuate rancour to future generations, and provoke the surviving Edomites to cruel retaliations, whenever they had it in their power.
cast them   2Sa 12:31; 1Ch 20:3
broken in pieces   2Ch 20:10; 2Ch 21:8-10
