An Introduction to Obadiah

The book of Obadiah is one that is hardly ever read, let alone studied, but this little book in the minor prophets packs a powerful punch for Bible study! In this first video, we get the background for Obadiah’s prophecy to help us understand how an ancient family feud turned into national warfare. Set in modern-day Petra, the prophet Obadiah speaks God’s Word against the Edomites who thought because of their great land, they were untouchable. Funny how God shows up and rearranges history… Watch this first video lecture on Obadiah to see why this obscure message given thousands of years ago shows us God’s eternal character and speaks truth for us today.
