Summary

This verse is part of a prophecy against Egypt, where the people who were once mighty rulers are now in the depths of the earth with the uncircumcised, a term symbolizing those who are spiritually impure. It illustrates the humbling of those who exalted themselves above others, showing that even the most powerful nations will face judgment and be brought low. The imagery of being buried with the slain in battle conveys the idea of a shameful end for those who opposed God. Ultimately, this verse serves as a reminder of the consequences of pride and disobedience, emphasizing the importance of humility and obedience before God.

Adam Clarke Bible Commentary

There is Edom - All the glory and pomp of the Idumean kings, who also helped to oppress the Israelites, are gone down into the grave. Their kings, princes, and all their mighty men lie mingled with the uncircumcised, not distinguished from the common dead: "Where they an equal honor share, Who buried or unburied are. Where Agamemnon knows no more Than Irus, he condemned before. Where fair Achilles and Thersites lie, Equally naked, poor, and dry."
