Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 35:2

2 Son of man, set thy face against Mount Seir , and prophesie against it.

Put thy self in a posture, looking towards Mount Seir, but with a stern and menacing Countenance, the phrase you meet, chap. 20. ver. 46. let. n. and chap. 21. ver. 2 and chap. 25. ver. 2.

The Countrey for the Inhabitants of it, as is usual in Scripture; this was a Mountainous Countrey, yet fruitful.

So called from its old Lord of it, Stir the Horite, or Mountainer from Hor, whose posterity were ou[illegible: 1 letter]ed of it by Esau's posterity, Deut. 2.12.

Foretell what sad things are coming on them.
