‏ Ezekiel 25

Ezek 25:1, God’s vengeance, for their insolency against the Jews, upon the Ammonites; Ezek 25:8, upon Moab and Seir; Ezek 25:12, upon Edom; Ezek 25:15, and upon the Philistines.

Josephus expressly states, that five years after the destruction of Jerusalem, Nebuchadnezzar turned his arms against the Ammonites and Moabites, and entirely subjugated them; and it is probable, that the Arabs, and other nations east of Judah, then took possession of their cities, and enjoyed the fruits of their land. The country of Moab and Ammon is now inhabited by the Bedouin Arabs; where they pasture their flocks, and, no doubt, make the ruins of Rabbah, their one proud capital, "a stable for camels," and other cattle. See note on 2Sam 12:26.

I will stretch These predictions against the Philistines, Edomites, and others, seem to have been fulfilled by by Nebuchadnezzar during the siege of Tyre. Berosus states that he subdued Syria, Arabia, Phoenicia, and Egypt; and now their very names have no existence, except in history. Ezek 25:7, Ezek 25:13
