Obadiah
is the shortest book in the Old Testament. It
has only 21 verses, but it carries one of the
most powerful messages of judgment on Edom with
no words of encouragement or ways for possible
deliverance. God will bring total destruction
upon Edom and restore Israel. The Prophet
Obadiah wrote this in approximately 840 B.C. Not
much is known about him. It is possible that he
lived in the southern kingdom of Judah but
nothing is known of his hometown or family.
There are 13 Obadiahs in the Old Testament of
the Bible and some scholars have attempted to
identify the author of this book with one of the
other twelve but cannot come up with concrete
evidence to prove any of them. The Edomites who
were descendants of Esau and the Israelites who
were descendants of Jacob are the main focus of
the condemnation brought out in this book.
