JEREMIAH 49

GOD WARNS SURROUNDING NATIONS 

God pronounces judgment on multiple bordering nations and cities of Judah, including Ammon, Edom, Damascus, Kedar, Hazor, and Elam. These nations have rebelled against God and will be absorbed into the Babylonian empire, serving as Israel’s enemies.

Similar to Moab, God also promises to restore the fortunes of the Ammonites and of Elam, but the reason is undisclosed.
