Where was Edom located relative to the Dead Sea?
According to the transcript, Edom was located down to the southeast of the Dead Sea. It is mentioned alongside Moab as being in that region. The context also references Isaiah 63:1, which speaks of one coming from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah.
Les explains that he had previously mentioned Moab but should have also included Edom, which is down to the southeast of the Dead Sea. He then points to Isaiah 63:1, where the prophet asks who comes from Edom with dyed garments from Bozrah, and identifies this as a picture of Christ returning to bring judgment upon the gathered armies. This fits the symbolic analogy of treading the wine vat.
