SCRIPTURE

"Thus will I make mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him that passeth through and him that returneth." — Ezekiel 35:7 (ASV)

Thus will I make Mount Seir most desolate
By shedding the blood of the inhabitants of it; and as Rome will be, when it will be utterly burnt with fire, as that city will, and the flesh of the whore also, and made desolate; and when all the vials shall be poured out on the antichristian states under her jurisdiction, (Revelation 16:1) (17:16) (18:8) : and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth :
every traveller that passeth to and fro; it shall no more be frequented by merchants; nor will there be any merchandise any more in it, (Revelation 18:11) .
