Devotional: Obadiah 15-18

Today’s passage: Obadiah 15-18

Helpful thoughts:

  • God is going to bring judgment on all the nations (Edom will not escape).
  • The drinking going on in these verses is like that of Jeremiah 25:15-29.  What the people are drinking is the wrath of God.
  • In comparing the houses of Jacob and Joseph to fire and Esau to stubble, God is promising that Israel itself will be who He uses to destroy Edom.

Questions to consider:

  1. How was this bad news for Edom (and the nations) good news for Israel?
  2. Are the people of Israel the ones whom Edom should fear?
  3. Why is there good news for Israel?  What (Or Who) made Mount Zion holy and the land their possession?
  4. How should this prophecy encourage and also humble the people of God?
