‏ Isaiah 34:10

10. It--The burning pitch, &c. (Is 34:9).

smoke ... for ever--(Re 14:11; 18:18; 19:3).

generation to generation--(Mal 1:4).

none ... pass through--Edom's original offense was: they would not let Israel pass through their land in peace to Canaan: God recompenses them in kind, no traveller shall pass through Edom. Volney, the infidel, was forced to confirm the truth of this prophecy: "From the reports of the Arabs, southeast of the Dead Sea, within three days' journey are upwards of thirty ruined towns, absolutely deserted."
