Summary "The Bible, King James version, Book 31: Obadiah" by Anonymous is a prophetic book from the Old Testament, written in the ancient period of biblical history. It comprises a single chapter and addresses the theme of divine judgment against the nation of Edom, a historical adversary of Israel. Obadiah's prophecy serves as a message of warning and consolation, focusing on themes of pride, betrayal, and the eventual restoration of Israel. In this book, the prophet Obadiah conveys a vision from God about the impending downfall of Edom due to its violence and disdain towards Israel, symbolized by its betrayal during times of distress. Edom, represented as a proud nation living in high places, is warned that its arrogance will lead to its destruction. The text outlines the consequences of Edom's actions against its brother nation, Judah, highlighting that the sins of Edom will return upon itself and that divine retribution is imminent. Ultimately, the prophecy reassures that the house of Jacob will be restored, indicating a future of redemption and justice for Israel, while Edom will be utterly devastated.
