Jeremiah49:17
17 Also Edom shall be a desolation: every one that goeth by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all the plagues thereof .
The like is said of Babylon, chap. 50.13. it appears from 1 Kings 9.8. that it was a kind of Proverbial expression, when they would express a great desolation, or great plagues, that those who passed by such a place, should be astonished, and hiss at it.
