Edom
The name "Edom" is derived from the Hebrew word "אֱדוֹם" (Edom), meaning "red." This name is associated with Esau, the brother of Jacob, who was described as red and hairy at birth (Genesis 25:25). Edom represents a nation descended from Esau, often in conflict with Israel. Historically, Edom was located south of the Dead Sea, in present-day Jordan. The Edomites were known for their wisdom and strategic location along trade routes. In a spiritual sense, Edom symbolizes the fleshly nature and opposition to God's chosen people. The mention of Edom in this verse serves as a reminder of the enduring enmity between the descendants of Esau and Jacob, and the ultimate sovereignty of God over all nations.

Moab
The name "Moab" comes from the Hebrew "מוֹאָב" (Mo'av), which is believed to mean "from the father." Moab was a nation descended from Lot, Abraham's nephew, through an incestuous relationship with his eldest daughter (Genesis 19:37). Geographically, Moab was located east of the Dead Sea. The Moabites were often in conflict with Israel, yet they also had moments of interaction, such as the account of Ruth, a Moabitess who became an ancestor of King David. Moab's mention in this verse highlights the complex relationship between Israel and its neighbors, as well as God's judgment on nations that opposed His people. It serves as a reminder of God's justice and the call for nations to align with His purposes.

and the Ammonites
The term "Ammonites" is derived from the Hebrew "עַמּוֹן" (Ammon), meaning "people" or "nation." Like Moab, the Ammonites were descendants of Lot, through his younger daughter (Genesis 19:38). The Ammonites inhabited the region east of the Jordan River. Historically, they were known for their hostility towards Israel, often engaging in battles against them. The Ammonites' worship of the god Molech, which involved child sacrifice, was particularly abhorrent to the Israelites. In this verse, the inclusion of the Ammonites underscores the theme of divine retribution against nations that defy God's will and mistreat His people. It serves as a call to recognize the holiness of God and the consequences of idolatry and immorality.
