God’s Judgment against Arabia (Kedar and Hazor) - (vv. 28-33). These were two desert peoples (nomadic Arab nations conquered by Nebuchadnezzar (vv. 28-29) that lived by raising sheep and camels. They were guilty of living at ease, isolating themselves from others, and being full of pride and self-confidence. When Nebuchadnezzar arrives on the scene they are urged to flee and hide (v. 30). Kedar was a, little known, Bedouin tribe that descended from Ishmael (Gen. 25:13) and lived in the Syrian desert east of Palestine (vv. 28-29). These people were known for their skills in archery (Isa. 21:16-17). The people of Hazor, an unknown place in the Arabian desert felt so secure in their desert location that they did not even have city gates or bars to protect them against attack (vv. 30-31). They didn’t think they needed God and they didn’t need the help of any other people (vv, 32-33).
God’s Judgment against Elam (vv. 34-39). The Elamites were a Semitic people who lived east of Babylon, bordered by Assyria and Media on the north, the Persian Gulf on the south and Persia on the east. Later it became the center of the Persian Empire (Dan. 8:2) and the residence of Darius. Today this is the country of Iran. It states that her invaders would come from all directions (the four winds and the four quarters of the heavens) and would scatter Elam’s exiles throughout the earth, but someday would be brought back to their land..
