<p> | <p> A city of Moab. It is supposed to mean, a place of heat. We know that [[Kir]] is city; and Haresh is sometimes put for brick or baked. The prophet Isaiah saith, that his bowels "sounded like an harp for Moab, and his inward parts for Kei-haresh," which was the chief city of Moab. ( Isaiah 16:11) Whether the prophet's lamentation for [[Moab]] was from the ruin of it as a city, (see 2 Kings 3:1-27 throughout,) or whether spiritually considered, I know not. The city itself was certainly fertile, and the whole country of Moab delightful for fruits and vineyards, which historians tell us extended even to the borders of the [[Dead]] Sea. Such was our nature originally, like the garden of Eden; and who but must lament to behold the ruin by the fall. Oh, the blessedness of that recovery by the Lord Jesus Christ! </p> | ||
