He was speaking to the descendants of Esau, Jacob's brother. They are called the Edomites.They occupied Mt. Seir. They always hated the Jews, because to the Jews was given the promise of the land of Israel and the blessing, which they believe had been stolen from Esau (and consequently, his descendants) by Jacob. They had rejoiced when they saw Jerusalem destroyed by Nebuchanezzar, and even helped in the Jews' slaughter, both by blocking the Jews' way of escape, and by exhorting Nebuchadnezzar's army to slay all the Jews. God said that He knew why they did it: they wanted to go and occupy the now-empty land of Israel, knowing that God had promised it in perpetuity to the Jews. God let them know that the hatred and thirst for the blood of the Jews would only bring bloodshed and perpetual loss to the Edomites, and that their evil desires would never be fulfilled.
