Yes, Jerusalem is comforted by contrasting their situation with Edom. It is stated that the punishment of their iniquity
will come to an end. This expression may be a prediction of hope that it will end in the future. It may also be completed, although the aftereffects are still evident. The worst has been experienced and the exile will be no longer. Whatever the case may be, there is hope and comfort because the end is in sight.1
22 Fille de Sion, ton iniquité est expiée; Il ne t'enverra plus en captivité. Fille d'Edom, il châtiera ton iniquité, Il mettra tes péchés à découvert.
