Here are my thoughts and highlights from Obadiah as I continue my journey through the Bible:

Obadiah

• Obadiah means “Servant of YHWH”
• A judgment against Edom (The descendants of Esau)
• Allowing injustice is the same as committing it
  • Edom “stood and watched” and “were as bad as they were”
• A remnant of Israel will be saved but Edom is screwed.
• It seems the “hope” at the end here is that Israel will rule justly. Apparently Edom is incapable of redemption?
