CONTENTS
The Lord is expostulating with Israel in this Chapter, on their ingratitude; and pointing out in his providences and grace, his distinguishing favor to Jacob, and his judgment on Esau.
The title of this prophecy as a burden, is not meant to express a matter grievous in its weight, but blessed in its importance. It is the Lord's burden, and brings with it the Lord's blessing. Burdensome indeed to sinners, but refreshing to saints.
