Midrash sa Ezekiel 35:10: Aggadat Bereshit, Midrash Tehillim & Bereshit Rabbah

[2] Another interpretation: "Things will come to your heart." Everything is first considered in the heart. Esau did this, as it is said, "And Esau said in his heart" (Genesis 27:41). Nebuchadnezzar did this, and you also said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God" (Isaiah 14:13). Haman did this, as it is said, "Haman went out that day joyful and with a glad heart. But when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, that he did not stand or tremble before him, he was filled with wrath against Mordecai" (Esther 5:9-13). The kingdom of Sodom did this, as it is said, "And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, judge, please, between Me and My vineyard. What more could have been done to My vineyard that I have not done in it? Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes, did it bring forth wild grapes?" (Isaiah 5:3-4). Likewise, Gog did this, as it is said, "Let things come to your heart and put evil schemes into your mind" (Ezekiel 38:10). Everything he thought in his heart, the Holy One, blessed be He, made public. And what Esau thought, see later at the end of chapter 42 [of Genesis]. He went to Ishmael and said, "This is not the way of the world that I should kill my father Isaac. Rather, kill him and let me inherit the entire world." This is what he said with his mouth, but in his heart he was saying, "I will kill Jacob after Ishmael kills Isaac." He came to Ishmael and killed him and said, "Why did you kill my father?" And I will inherit the entire world for myself." He thought this in his heart, and the Holy One, blessed be He, made it public, as it is said, "For I have laid bare Esau's rugged mountains and his dwelling place" (Jeremiah 49:10). The Lord said, "I know what you thought in your heart," as it is said, "Because you said, 'These two nations and these two lands shall be mine, and we will possess them,' whereas the Lord was there" (Ezekiel 35:10). There I looked into your heart and saw what you thought. Likewise, Gog and Magog think in their hearts, as it is said, "On that day, things will come to your heart and you will plan an evil plan" (Ezekiel 38:10). And the Holy One, blessed be He, makes public what they are thinking, as it is said, "And you said, 'I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to those who are at rest, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls and having neither bars nor gates'" (Ezekiel 38:11). And what does he think? Rather, this is what Pharaoh, who came against the Israelites, says: "He [Moses] was a fool, he left his patron and came to them." And similarly, Amalek, Sisera, and anyone who stood against them [the Israelites], they left [it] to the Holy One, blessed be He, [to deal with them], [because] they were fools. But what can I do? I will go first to the patrons of Israel, and if I kill the Messiah, he will raise up other Messiahs. But [the judgment] is upon the Lord, as it says, "Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?" (Psalms 2:1-2). Edom, Ishmael, Gebal, Ammon, and Assyria all conspired against the Almighty, as it is written, "They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, and consulted together against Your sheltered ones" (Psalms 83:3). And what do they do? They stand on their feet and look up at the Almighty, saying, "Come, let us cut them off from being a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more" (Psalms 83:5). What is the name of Israel? They say, "Let us wipe it out," as it is written, "Blessed is the Eternal, God of Israel" (Psalms 41:14). And what does the Lord do to them from above? He stands on their feet and punishes them, as it is written: "And this shall be the plague...he shall stand upon his feet, and his eyes shall consume away in their holes, and his tongue shall consume away in his mouth." (Zechariah 14:12). Those feet that wanted to stand against Me, the plague consumes them while they stand on their feet. Those eyes that looked upwards, his eyes shall consume away in their holes. And that tongue that spoke against Me, his tongue shall consume away in his mouth. The Lord said to them: "At first, there was no peace among you, 'There is no peace,' says the Lord, 'for the wicked'" (Isaiah 48:22). But now you have made peace with each other to come against Me. It is written, "For they have consulted together with one consent; against thee do they make a covenant: The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah." (Psalm 83:6-9). All of you have made peace to come against Me, so I will also do the same. And you, son of man, shall say to the birds and to every beast of the field: "Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood." (Ezekiel 39:17). Just as you did not have peace with each other and made peace to come upon me, so too I call the birds and animals that did not have peace with each other and I make peace between them to come upon you. And because you said, "And let not the name of Israel be remembered anymore," (Psalm 83:5) your life will end and they will bury you and take your name away from the world, as it is said, "all the people of the land shall bury them. The day I manifest My glory shall bring renown to them", and they shall make an end. (Ezekiel 39:13)

Another thing the fool said in his heart. The wicked are under the authority of the son of white, and the righteous are under their own authority. The wicked are under the authority of the son of white (Genesis 27:41), and Esau said in his heart (Esther 6:6), and Haman said in his heart (1 Kings 12:26), and Jeroboam said in his heart (Isaiah 14:13), and you said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven" (Daniel 4:28). Another saying is in the mouth of the king of heaven: "What else is there for me to say?" And so Nabal said in his heart, and Esau said in his heart: "What do I think?" He said, "There is no way in the world that I will kill my father, but I will tell Ishmael, his brother, and he will kill him, and I will kill Jacob, his brother, and we will inherit the world." Thus, Esau did not say with his mouth, but in his heart he thought, "Since Ishmael kills my father and I kill my brother, I will come to court with Ishmael and kill him, and I will inherit the world." Therefore, he said in his heart, and the Lord revealed it, as it is written, "For I have exposed Esau and uncovered his hiding places" (Jeremiah 49:10). The Lord said to him, "I know what you thought in your heart," as it is written, "Because you said, 'These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess them'" (Ezekiel 35:10), and who declared it? "And the Lord was there."...

[2] Alternative interpretation: "And Jacob fled. "The prudent sees danger and hides himself" (Proverbs 22:3). This is Jacob, and what did he see and flee from? Once he received the blessings, Esau began seeking to kill him, as it is said, "And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, 'The days of mourning for my father are approaching; then I will kill my brother Jacob.'" (Genesis 27:41). Jacob went to stay with Ishmael, as it says, "And Esau went to Ishmael" (Genesis 28:9). Jacob said to Ishmael, "Your brother Isaac is my father, and I cannot kill him. But if you join forces with me, we will kill Esau." It was for Esau that Abraham was forced to expel Ishmael from his home, as Sarah said, "Cast out this slave woman and her son" (Genesis 21:10). "You kill my brother and I will kill Jacob my brother, and we will take the whole world for ourselves." And he also thought to himself, "If anyone kills his father, I will kill Jacob my brother." I will come to prosecute Ishmael, asking him why he killed my father, and I will kill him and take the whole world for myself. God said to him, "No creature knows what you thought in your heart," as it is said, "Because you have said, 'These two nations and these two lands will be mine, and we will possess them,' although the Lord was there" (Ezekiel 35:10). "I was there, and now I am revealing what you wanted to do," as it is said, "For I have laid bare Esau, I have uncovered his hiding places" (Jeremiah 49:10). "And I have only revealed the obvious," as it is said, "Reveal the arm of the Holy One and uncover his hiding places" (Isaiah 52:10). "Why did you want to destroy his offspring and his brother and his divine presence?" And that is why they did not succeed. When Jacob saw these actions, he said, "Why should I sit here and endanger myself and Ishmael? Therefore it is said, 'The prudent sees danger and hides himself' (Proverbs 22:3), and Jacob fled to the field of Aram." And the Holy Spirit cried out, saying, "For God shall cast upon him, and not spare; he would fain flee out of his hand." (Job 27:22).
