Title The World English Bible (WEB): Obadiah
Credits From www.ebible.org with slight reformatting by Martin Ward
Summary "The World English Bible (WEB): Obadiah" by Anonymous is a prophetic book from the Old Testament, likely written in the late 6th century BC. This brief text, consisting of a single chapter, focuses on the judgment pronounced against Edom, a nation neighboring Israel. It reflects themes of pride, betrayal, and divine retribution, emphasizing the consequences of sin and the ultimate triumph of Israel. The book presents a vision from Obadiah, where God declares that Edom will face destruction due to its arrogance and violence against its brother nation, Israel. The narrative highlights that the Edomites have displayed pride and treachery, particularly during Israel's misfortunes. It emphasizes that their alliances will turn against them, leading to their downfall. The chapter concludes with a vision of restoration for Israel, portraying a future where the house of Jacob will reclaim its possessions, and divine justice will be enacted, establishing God's kingdom over all.
