Obadiah - Pride and The Day of the Lord

May 19, 2024    Fr Mina Dimitri
Fr. Mina continues the Inn bible study with the book of Obadiah. It is the smallest book in the Old Testament, being only 1 chapter. It is a book of the minor prophets. It is unique because it is a prophecy to Edom. The Edomites were the descendants of Esau. When Judah, their relatives, were attacked by the Babylonians, the Edomites took advantage of them and betrayed them. The Edomites were prideful and thus the day of the Lord was upon them.
