Malachi complains of Israel's unkindness;2. of their irreverence and profaneness. but Esau I have hated The phrase "Esau I have hated" is a direct reference to God's sovereign choice and His divine prerogative in election, as seen in the Hebrew word "שָׂנֵאתִי" (saneti), meaning "hated." This is not to be understood in the human emotional sense of hatred but rather as a term of rejection in contrast to the chosen love for Jacob. Historically, Esau represents the nation of Edom, which often stood in opposition to Israel. This phrase underscores the biblical theme of God's sovereign will and His right to choose whom He will bless, as further explored in Romans 9:13. It serves as a reminder of the divine justice and the mystery of God's ways, which are higher than human understanding. and I have made his mountains a wasteland and left his inheritance to the jackals of the desert Parallel Commentaries ...
