Let us begin to muse from Obadiah versus 10-14 and judgment delivered on Edom. It seems that Edom committed three sins and stepped over God’s mercy line and for which God had no forgiveness. The first is mentioned in verses 10-11 when Edom encouraged Judah’s enemies. The Jews had many faults but they were still God’s people. Edom’s alignment with Israel’s enemies will cause them shame and to be cut off for ever. In verse 11 Edom chooses sides against Israel. They applaud Israel’s downfall. Proverbs said, he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished. Oh how many are joyful today when the church fails are God’s man fall. Let us remember God is watching and will not let such activity go unpunished.
