Jeremiah 49:7

Concerning Edom, thus saith the LORD of hosts; Is wisdom no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished?

Concerning Edom. A distinct prophecy; copied in part from Obadiah, but with the freedom of one inspired himself, and foretelling a later calamity. Obadiah's was fulfilled probably in Sennacherib's time (cf. ; ); Jeremiah's about the same time as his preceding prophecies (; .)

Is wisdom no more in Teman? - for which the Arabs and the people of Teman (a city of Edom), in particular, were famed (; ; see Job, everywhere; ).

Vanished - literally, poured out - i:e., exhausted, (cf. , margin) (Maurer.) Or, as the kindred Ethiopic word means, worn out (Ludovicus de Dieu).
