Podcasts about Edom

In Obadiah, why is Edom singled out for such strong judgment? In Jonah 4, why is Jonah so angry about Nineveh's repentance—and what does that reaction reveal about his understanding of God? In today's episode, Emma Dotter talks with Watermark student, Paige Fowler, and discuss why God speaks to the nations who are not Israel. They discuss how we ought to handle anger we might feel toward the Lord and others.                                                                 Additional references: Romans 7:15-20; Ephesians 2:13Students!

In 1263 the Ramban was forced to attend a public Disputation and defend the truths of the Talmud against attacks by the Dominicans, who were led by an apostate Jew.   The Ramban would be exiled from Spain as a result and settle in Eretz Yisrael where he described with both pride and pain of the state of the Jewish community.  Using his medical knowledge, the Ramban also authored a central halachic work on healing and consulting doctors for refuah.   Chapters 00:00 The Downfall of Edom and the Church's Influence 02:53 The Ramban's Controversial Letters and Kabbalistic Ideas 06:08 The Disputation of Barcelona: A Turning Point 08:44 The Aftermath of the Disputation and Censorship 11:57 The Ramban's Journey to Eretz Yisrael 14:41 Rebuilding Jerusalem: The Ramban's Legacy 18:03 The Ramban's Medical Insights and Philosophy 21:02 The Ramban's Introduction to the Torah 24:03 The Essence of the Torah and Its Connection to Hashem

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, dear friends, and thank you for joining us on this September 9th episode—day 252 in our journey through the Scriptures. I'm Hunter, your host and Bible reading coach, here to gather with you as we spend time in the pages of God's Word, letting its timeless truths warm our hearts and direct our lives. Today, we dive deep into Lamentations 1 and 2, reflecting on the grief and loss experienced by Jerusalem; we hear the prophetic voice of Obadiah as he speaks judgment over Edom; and finally, in Revelation 14, we catch a glimpse of hope and the promised victory as Babylon falls and God's everlasting kingdom draws near. Throughout this episode, we're reminded of God's faithfulness—even in the midst of sorrow and judgment—and we're invited to hold on to hope, anticipating a future where every tear is wiped away, and God's kingdom reigns forever. Let's walk this journey together, holding fast to the assurance that, no matter where we find ourselves in the world, we are deeply loved and never alone. So grab your Bible, open your heart, and let's get started. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Babylon has fallen, and out of the ashes rises hope. In today's reading, we are presented with images of destruction and desolation—Jerusalem sitting alone in mourning, stripped of her splendor, crying out in anguish. The prophet laments the fate of God's people, who have found themselves far from home with nothing to cling to but the bitter consequences of rebellion and loss. Their city, once beautiful, is now brought low, and the justice of God—His fierce anger against sin and disobedience—is heartbreakingly clear. Yet woven through these words of judgment and sorrow, there is an undercurrent of hope. In Revelation, we hear the proclamation: “Babylon is fallen.” The old order—the city built on pride, oppression, and immorality—is finally brought down. But this is not the end of the story. Out of the ashes, God promises something new. The Lamb stands on Mount Zion, surrounded by the redeemed, and announces the coming of a new city, a new Jerusalem—a place where God Himself will dwell with His people, where every tear will be wiped away, and sorrow will be no more. This is the vision that is set before us: even when we find ourselves lamenting all that has been lost, even when it seems darkness has the final word, God has the power to bring life from death, redemption from ruin. The story of Babylon's fall is ultimately the story of God's enduring faithfulness. He is making all things new. He is the One who restores, who gathers His people and leads them out of exile and into hope. May we live with our eyes fixed on this promise. Let us not be daunted by the ruins around us or the regret behind us, but look to the kingdom that is coming, to the King who will reign forever. With every act of faith and every prayer for God's will to be done on earth as it is in heaven, we sow seeds of hope in the soil of our world's brokenness. That's the prayer I have for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

Numbers 21:4-9 - From Mount Hor they set out by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom. And the people became impatient on the way. And the people spoke against God and against Moses, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and we loathe this worthless food.” Then the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people, so that many people of Israel died. And the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you. Pray to the Lord, that He take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people. And the Lord said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent and set it on a pole, and everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.” So Moses made a bronze serpent and set it on a pole. And if a serpent bit anyone, he would look at the bronze serpent and live.

THE KING of Moab sacrificed his oldest son on the wall of his capital city, causing the combined armies of Israel, Judah, and Edom to withdraw from their siege. How do we process this? Then he (King Mesha) took his oldest son who was to reign in his place and offered him for a burnt offering on the wall. And there came great wrath on Israel. And they withdrew from him and returned to their own land. (2 Kings 3:27, ESV) On the surface, it appears the king of Moab's sacrifice was successful. But that's not how we read it. The wrath against Israel was God's anger that they didn't trust in His promise, through the prophet Elisha, to deliver Moab into the hands of kings Jehoram of Israel and Jehoshaphat of Judah. God does not honor or condone human sacrifice. We also discuss the miracles of the widow's oil, the son of the Shunammite woman, whose birth was no less a miracle than Elisha raising him from the dead, and Elisha's purification of the poisoned stew.

2 Kings 14 records Amaziah's reign, which began with the punishment of those servants who had struck down and killed his father. Amaziah campaigns successfully against Edom. As a result of this he becomes lifted up in pride and seeks a quarrel with Israel. Amaziah is humbled in that battle, and many hostages are taken out of Judah to Samaria. Judah is placed under tribute. As we read the story carefully you will see that all the events provide the backdrop for our Lord Jesus Christ's parable about the Good Samaritan in Luke 10 verses 25-37. The chapter finishes by telling us of Israel's great decline under Jeroboam 2, until Yahweh helps Israel by raising up the prophet Jonah. Ezekiel 4 provides a portrayal of the extremities to which Judah is brought by the siege of Jerusalem. Ezekiel is caused to lay on his right side for 390 days for the house of Israel and 40 days for the house of Judah verses 430 days, from Jeroboam's defection until the captivity. This demonstrates also the day for a year principle. The prophet is symbolically the one who would bear the iniquities of the two nations - Israel and Judah. In this he typified the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of Man. During this parable, which occupies about 14 months for its completion, he ate lentil bread by weight indicating the shortage of food. He also drank measured amounts of water daily. Ezekiel was indicating to his nation the scarcity of provisions that would occur in the Babylonian siege. In 2 Corinthians 12 we are told about visions that the Apostle Paul had 14 years before the writing of his letter. The "visions" were so real that Paul was unsure as to whether he was actually there, or it was just a dream-like revelation. The experience empowered him to deal with his severe trials, for which he earnestly beseeched God three times in prayer to remove. Each time he receives from the Father the same answer - "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness". If only we could all learn that lesson. He speaks of his intent to see them; and this had twice been thwarted. What the Apostle's thorn in the flesh was we do not know. What we know is his eyesight was badly affected to the extent that Paul used a scribe to write his letters. His autograph at the end of each letter was in large handwritten characters verses Galatians 6 verses 11. Additionally Paul had sent Titus as his representative as that brother closely knew the Apostle's mind on the matters the epistle discusses. Titus also had a great love for the Corinthians. Chapter 13 concludes with final warnings and advice. The Apostle had attempted visiting the Corinthian ecclesia twice, but his plans had been thwarted. Verses 5-10 is a call for all of the believers in this city to reconsider their motives and actions. And to change these, if required, so that they might find a place in the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming. Verses 11-14 give Paul's final greetings and his appeal for the members of the ecclesia to live in love and harmony.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow at

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 339, “Like Father, Like Son-Not Always a Good Thing,” Kim discusses the positive and negative aspects of the concept - like father, like son. In today's podcast, we explore a sad tale of a like father, like son relationship with poor choices and violent ends. However, it doesn't have to be that way. If you have unhealthy patterns in your family, may today be your personal Independence Day.   Our focal passage for this episode is 2 Chronicles 25:17-28, with 20 & 27 as the focal verses:   20 But Amaziah refused to listen, for God was determined to destroy him for turning to the gods of Edom.   27 After Amaziah turned away from the Lord, there was a conspiracy against his life in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. But his enemies sent assassins after him, and they killed him there.     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   Are there any unhealthy family patterns you need to break?   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   4 We use God's mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. 5 We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:4-5) 25 The Arameans withdrew, leaving Joash severely wounded. But his own officials plotted to kill him for murdering the son of Jehoiada the priest. They assassinated him as he lay in bed. Then he was buried in the City of David, but not in the royal cemetery. (2 Chronicles 24:25) EMAIL — encouragingothersinlovingjesus@gmail.com X - https://x.com/eoinlovingjesus?s=21&t=YcRjZQUpvP7FrJmm7Pe1hg INSTAGRAM -  https://www.instagram.com/encouragingothersinlovingjesus/ “Encouraging Others in Loving Jesus” YouTube Channel: Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@EncouragingOthersInLovingJesus       I WANT TO BEGIN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.   RESOURCES USED FOR BOOK OF 1 & 2 Kings PODCASTS: “The Wiersbe Bible Commentary: The Complete Old Testament OT in One Volume” “Christ-Centered Exposition: Exalting Jesus in 1 & 2 Kings” by Tony Merida “The Tony Evans Bible Commentary: Advancing God's Kingdom Agenda” “Life Application Study Bible” “The Swindoll Study Bible: NLT” by Charles R.

Jesus, I See What You've Done For Other People, And I Want That For Me 2 Kings 8 Chew the Bible S3The Shunammite Woman's Land Restored: Elisha warns the Shunammite woman to flee a seven-year famine. When she returns, her land has been seized. She goes to the king, and as she arrives, the king's conversation with Elisha's servant about the prophet's miracles leads to the immediate restoration of all her property.Hazael Murders Ben-Hadad: Elisha prophesies in Damascus that the ill King Ben-Hadad will die, and that his servant, Hazael, will become king and inflict great evil on Israel. Hazael returns and murders Ben-Hadad, taking his throne.Reigns of Jehoram and Ahaziah: Jehoram of Judah reigns for eight years and does evil, leading to Edom's rebellion. His son, Ahaziah, then reigns for one year, also doing evil and aligning himself with the wicked house of Ahab.Your words were found and I ate them

2 Kings 8 verses 1-6 tells us that the woman from Shunem whose son had been resurrected by Elisha had fallen into hard times during the seven-year famine that occurred. She had to move away from her home and lands. Gehazi, Elisha's former servant, points her out to the king who commands that her lands be restored to her. Verses 7-15 speak of Benhadad's sickness and subsequent murder by his general Hazael. Elijah had earlier told Elisha that he was to anoint Hazael to be king of Syria. Elisha has come to Damascus for that task. He is met by Hazael who has brought with him a gift from Benhadad and an enquiry as to whether the Syrian king would recover his health. Elisha is brought to tears when he met the hard and callous Hazael. Elisha's message that in the natural course of life Benhadad would recover. However, Yahweh has shown Elisha that Hazael will be a ruthless ruler that will commit unspeakable horrors against Israel - the pregnant women in particular. Hazael then returns to his monarch and suffocates him. Verses 16-24 tell of Judah's throne coming to the 32-year-old Jehoram, who proved to be a wicked king. Jehoram is described as being like the evil kings of Israel. One of the greatest influences on this man's life was his marriage to the evil daughter of king Ahab. His was a short reign of 8 years and his actions brought the kingdom of Judah to a low state. It was during his reign that Edom revolted and ceased to be a vassal of Judah. Jehoram is succeeded by his son Ahaziah - Judah's next king. Verses 25-29 speak of Ahaziah's rulership over Judah. The new king was 22 years old and reigned for a single year. This man was Ahab's grandson, and the record gives his relationship to Omri one of the wickedest men to have ever sat on Israel's throne. Verses. 26-27 make it clear how influential were his forbears on his life. Ahaziah joined Joram king of Israel in warring against the Syrians. The chapter finishes with Ahaziah's visit to his relative who was seriously wounded in the battle against the Syrians. Lamentations 4 verses 1-5 tell of the pitiful scenes that were seen in Judah after the wholesale and indiscriminate slaughter brought by the Babylonians. Verses 6-8 contrast these horrors with the former blessed conditions within the nation. Verses 9-10 state that it was the lucky ones who died by the sword and did not have to endure the famine which reduced the pitiful women to cannibalism. Verses 11-19 describe Yahweh's venting of His anger against His rebellious people. The surrounding nations were astounded at the report of the destruction brought to Judah. In verse 20 Jeremiah says that even though he knew that the coming judgments were just, they still terrified him when he saw what happened. The last two verses reveal Edom's elation at Zion's destruction. The lesson for us can be found in Romans 11 verses 22-23 - slowly read aloud and ponder the path we must take if we wish to receive the goodness of the LORD. 2 Corinthians is often called Paul's great letter of comfort. Chapter 1 tells us that one purpose of suffering is to develop in the sufferer a reservoir of compassion and comfort for others. The Apostle described his rock as the One who raised the dead (compare 1 Corinthians 15 verses 32 verses  that occasion was likely to have been in the amphitheatre at Ephesus - details as to whether he died and was in fact resurrected at Lystra can only be conjecture - although I personally believe that he died and was raised at that time verses  2 Timothy 3 verses 10-13 being the incident referenced). The coming of Timothy with the news he carried about the response of the believers at Corinth was a tonic that revived his spirit. Chapter 2 provided further advice for what to do next if the wrongdoer was to be fully recovered. The chapter tells us that in Troas he pondered his blessings in our Lord Jesus Christ. His imagery is drawn from the practices which accompanied the Roman Triumphal procession. The language that he uses to his fellow believers is ironic since their lifestyle spoke of living gloriously whereas the Apostles were treated as though they had been the conquered army many of whom were to be offered to the gods of the victors. Nonetheless in verses Paul says that God has strengthened him that the fragrant message of the gospel might replace the pungent odour of death that would otherwise fill the nostrils of the perishing.

4/8. Professor Eric Cline's books describe Egypt as "coping" after the 1177 BC collapse, retreating internationally due to internal chaos, like multiple pharaohs, during the Third Intermediate Period. A delayed drought impact affected them even with the Nile's support. This power vacuum allowed new, smaller kingdoms such as Israel, Judah, Edom, and Moab to flourish in regions previously overshadowed by larger empires. Egypt merely "muddled through" these challenging centuries. 2898 SCHOOL OF PLATO

Israel has sought out the men of Egypt for help against their foes, but they have not sought the Lord their God. When God's people turn back to him, Assyria will fall by the sword of the Lord. A righteous kingdom is announced where rulers will rule justly, the fool will no longer be called a noble, and the Spirit will be poured out on the people. Next, woe is pronounced on the destroyer who is never destroyed, which is likely a reference to Sennacherib. In an upcoming episode we'll hear the account of his messengers mocking the God of Israel and taunting King Hezekiah. Finally, we'll read a poetic prophecy that envisions Bozrah, the capital city of Edom, as a ghost town, totally abandoned by people and home only to wild animals. We'll end with a prophecy about a Holy Way.Isaiah 31 -  1:07 . Isaiah 32 - 3:31 . Isaiah 33 - 7:06 . Isaiah 34 - 12:55 . Isaiah 35 - 16:39 . Psalm 144 - 18:57 . Psalm 145 - 21:09 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

God condemned the Edomites because of their unbrotherly behavior towards Judah.  When strangers invaded Judah, the Edomites did not come to the aid of their brothers, they acted like their enemies.  In the day of the Lord, His wrath will be upon the nations that came against Him and rejected Him; but God will take care of His people and those that turn to Him.

We reach the end of 1 Kings today with chapter 22. The record tells us of a respite from war for 3 years. At the end of this time, Jehoshaphat, Ahab's son in law went to see his relative. Jehoshaphat is invited to join Ahab in a campaign against Syria but shows reluctance without the endorsement for the war by a prophet of Yahweh. The false prophets of Ahab promise victory, but Jehoshaphat remains adamant that without God's endorsement he will not proceed. Eventually Micaiah is summoned and sarcastically tells Ahab to go and conquer. The prophet was abused before he outlines the Almighty's attempt to entice and destroy the wicked king. Micaiah is put in tough conditions - being fed on bread and water - until his monarch would return in peace. Micaiah says that this cannot happen as Yahweh's Word cannot be broken. The king of Israel entered the battle in disguise, but was slain by an arrow shot by chance. Ahab having died in battle was carried to Samaria for burial and the dogs licked the blood from the washed chariot, in the very place of Naboth's slaughter, as Elijah had prophesied. Jehoshaphat, whose mother was faithful, walked as Asa his father had. He was a king like David. The record tells of a further error of judgment by Jehoshaphat in the joint venture with Israel's Ahaziah in the constructing of a navy at Ezion-geber. Ahaziah the son of Ahab came to rule over Israel and continued the wicked legacy of his father Ahab. The idolatry and wickedness had begun with Jeroboam: "the man who caused Israel to sin". Jehoshaphat seems to be like those described in 1 Corinthians 3 verses 13-15 ie his works were at times dubious but he may very well be saved.The 49th chapter of Jeremiah speaks of judgment poured out upon the nations surrounding Israel: Ammon (Moab's half brother); Edom, Syrian Damascus, Kedar and Hazor, and Elam. These nations and their principal cities were to experience the judgments from Yahweh delivered via the Babylonians. Verses 1-6 tell of the devastation of Ammon. Verses 7-22 speak of the total overthrow of Edom, ie Esau - Israel's brother. As we read these verses we should also consider the book of Obadiah and the words of Malachi 1 verses :2-5. Verses 23-27 outline the punishment of Damascus. Verses 28-33 predict the desolation of Hazor and Kedar in terms similar to the judgment of Babylon: compare Isaiah 14. Verses 34-39 speak of the punishment of Elam. Interestingly there are promises of latter day restoration for Ammon and Elam. The two kingdoms which bookend the prophecies of Jeremiah 49. As previously noted these pronouncements had applications for the prophet's time and, again, in the near future when the fortunes of Ammon and Elam will be reversed in the Kingdom of God. In the first of Corinthians 8 Paul outlines the problem facing the believers was not knowledge, but rather the insistence of exercising supposed rights. Idols were nothing; and so the eating of meats that had been devoted to an idol was of no consequence. What was of importance was, that, the insistence of some believers that they could go to a venue that promoted immorality. Paul declares that this could be cause for the stumbling of another believer. So for the sake of food, the Apostle explaines: do not destroy the conscience of another - for whom Christ died. Chapter 9 continues the argument that the foregoing of rights was essential if saving others is our objective. Paul's own example illustrates this. He explained in verses 8-14 by using two examples from the Law. This is followed by the Apostle showing that his preaching was from an obligation and was not entirely voluntary. This Paul explains humbles him and eliminates boasting. This section of the book 1 Corinthians concludes with the need for perseverance and discipline to attain the prize of eternal life.

From their conception there was bad blood between Jacob, aka “Israel” and his brother Esau, aka “Edom.”  Tensions between their descendants continued after their death and run all the way through the Bible.  Obadiah picked up on this and prophesied of Edom's downfall.  While this part of the prophecy has come to pass, it stands as a modern message, warning us to guard against godlessness and pride which was the root of Edom's downfall.

Joram's in the House 2 Kings 3 Chew the Bible Season 3King Joram of Israel, along with King Jehoshaphat of Judah and the king of Edom, joined forces to fight against Mesha, king of Moab. On their journey, they ran out of water and feared defeat. They sought help from the prophet Elisha, who told them to bring a musician. As music played, the Spirit of the Lord came upon Elisha, and he prophesied that God would provide water without rain and give them victory. The next morning, water filled the land, and the Moabites, seeing the reflection, thought it was blood. Believing their enemies had killed each other, they rushed in, only to be ambushed and defeated by Israel and its allies.Your words were found and I ate them

Esau Is Edom (broadcast date: 08/24/2025)

Exodus 15:1-21Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord:“I will sing to the Lord,  for he is highly exalted.Both horse and driver  he has hurled into the sea.   2 “The Lord is my strength and my defense;  he has become my salvation.He is my God, and I will praise him,  my father's God, and I will exalt him.   3 The Lord is a warrior;  the Lord is his name.   4 Pharaoh's chariots and his army  he has hurled into the sea.The best of Pharaoh's officers  are drowned in the Red Sea.   5 The deep waters have covered them;  they sank to the depths like a stone.   6 Your right hand, Lord,  was majestic in power.Your right hand, Lord,  shattered the enemy.   7 “In the greatness of your majesty  you threw down those who opposed you.You unleashed your burning anger;  it consumed them like stubble.   8 By the blast of your nostrils  the waters piled up.The surging waters stood up like a wall;  the deep waters congealed in the heart of the sea.   9 The enemy boasted,  ‘I will pursue, I will overtake them.I will divide the spoils;  I will gorge myself on them.I will draw my sword  and my hand will destroy them.'   10 But you blew with your breath,  and the sea covered them.They sank like lead  in the mighty waters.   11 Who among the gods  is like you, Lord?Who is like you—  majestic in holiness,awesome in glory,  working wonders?   12 “You stretch out your right hand,  and the earth swallows your enemies.   13 In your unfailing love you will lead  the people you have redeemed.In your strength you will guide them  to your holy dwelling.   14 The nations will hear and tremble;  anguish will grip the people of Philistia.   15 The chiefs of Edom will be terrified,  the leaders of Moab will be seized with trembling,the people of Canaan will melt away;16  terror and dread will fall on them.By the power of your arm  they will be as still as a stone—until your people pass by, Lord,  until the people you bought pass by.17 You will bring them in and plant them  on the mountain of your inheritance—the place, Lord, you made for your dwelling,  the sanctuary, Lord, your hands established.18 “The Lord reigns  for ever and ever.”19 When Pharaoh's horses, chariots and horsemen went into the sea, the Lord brought the waters of the sea back over them, but the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground. 20 Then Miriam the prophet, Aaron's sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women followed her, with timbrels and dancing. 21 Miriam sang to them:“Sing to the Lord,  for he is highly exalted.Both horse and driver  he has hurled into the sea.”  

Obadiah is the shortest book in Old Testament, and it's a prophecy directed against one nation: the nation of Edom. Though the time or century of this proclamation is not fully known, it is clear from the text that Edom is guilty of mocking Judah in their distress and taking advantage of their dire situation. In the end, however, the Lord will bring His people back but Edom will be devastated. Titus is a short epistle from Paul that includes qualifications for elders and a call to live together in unity and stop fighting about trivial matters. There are so many great truths in this one small letter. Alright, let's dive in.Obadiah - 1:06 . Titus 1 - 6:57 . Titus 2 - 9:42 . Titus 3 - 12:05 . Isaiah 11 - 14:55 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, and thank you for joining us on August 20th, 2025, for day 232 in our journey through the Scriptures. I'm your host, Hunter, your Bible reading coach and companion as we explore God's Word together. In today's episode, we'll be diving into some powerful passages from Jeremiah 48 and 49, where we hear God's prophetic messages to the nations of Moab, Ammon, Edom, and more—emphasizing both judgment and ultimate restoration. We'll then lift our hearts in praise with Psalm 67 and finish with the life-giving words of First John chapter 1, where we are reminded that “God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.” Join me as we reflect on what it means to live in the light and love of God, leaving behind shadowed understandings of who He is, and embracing a faith that is anchored in His compassion and grace. As always, we'll close with prayers together, seeking God's blessing and strength for the day ahead. Whether this is your first episode or you've journeyed with us all year, I pray today's reading will refresh and encourage your soul. Let's get started! TODAY'S DEVOTION: God is light, and there is no darkness in Him at all. That's the clear testimony of John in his first letter, and it's one he insists on with careful simplicity. There's no shadow in God, no hidden intentions, no darkness lurking behind His actions, not in some corner of His heart. God is light, and only light. And, John says, he and the other witnesses saw Him with their own eyes, touched Him with their own hands. In Jesus, the fullness of that light shone. Yet, many of us grow up with an uneasy sense that there's a second side to God—light and love on one hand, but wrath, anger, and darkness always close at hand. We might hear it in phrases like, “God is love, but He's also just,” or “God is love, but He's also holy.” We're left wondering if there is a line we might cross, a dividing point between God's kindness and God's judgment, and so we live in a sort of anxious balancing act, trying to stay in His favor and avoid the hidden, darker side of His character. But John sets the record straight: God is light, and God is love. Everything that flows from Him—His holiness, His righteousness, and yes, even His judgments—comes out of that light and love. There's nothing hiding behind Jesus' back; He's not the good cop while the Father is the bad cop. The nature of God is fully revealed in the face of Jesus, and that revelation is pure goodness. The very light of God has invited us, every one of us, into fellowship with Himself. We don't need to fear bringing our brokenness, our sin, and our shadows into the presence of His light. In fact, that is the invitation—bring it all to Him, let His love do what only love can do: expose, forgive, transform, heal, and invite us into real fellowship. Even as there remains darkness in us, it does not change who God is. We are to learn, like John, to see Jesus as He is, to experience Him with our own eyes and hands—to step out of the shadows and walk in the light. That's the prayer for today: to learn the ways of shadow-free living and shadow-free believing; to see God as He truly is, and to let that truth change the way we see ourselves and others, to let it dissolve our fear and shame. May we all come to know—deep in our hearts—that God is only and always light and love. That's my prayer for my own soul, for my family, for my wife and daughters and son, and that's my prayer for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day. Preserve us with your mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. Dear Lord, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your spirit on all flesh and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now, Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, joy. O Lord, grant that I might not seek so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen. Almighty God, father of all mercies, we, your grateful children, give you humble thanks for all your goodness and loving kindness to us and all you have made. We bless you for your creation, preservation and all the blessings of this life. And above all, for your immeasurable love and your redemption of the world through our Lord Jesus Christ. For the means of grace and the hope of glory, Lord, we pray, give us such awareness of your mercies that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise, not only with our lips, but with our lives, by the giving up of ourselves for your service in holiness and righteousness all our days, through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom with you and the Holy Spirit be all honor and glory through all ages. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.

FACEBOOK COPY: Who are we letting close enough to carry our armor?

“Jehoshaphat was terrified by this news and begged the Lord for guidance. He also ordered everyone in Judah to begin fasting. So people from all the towns of Judah came to Jerusalem to seek the Lord’s help.” (2 Chronicles 20:3–4 NLT) The king of Judah faced a military crisis. “The armies of the Moabites, Ammonites, and some of the Meunites declared war on Jehoshaphat. Messengers came and told Jehoshaphat, ‘A vast army from Edom is marching against you from beyond the Dead Sea’” (2 Chronicles 20:1–2 NLT). The enemies of Judah had joined forces. Their combined military strength was enough to overwhelm Israel’s defenses. Judah’s foes were bent on destruction, and things looked hopeless. There was no way Jehoshaphat’s army could stop the invading forces. The southern kingdom of Judah faced the very real possibility of complete annihilation. We find the king’s reaction and response in verse 3: “Jehoshaphat was terrified by this news and begged the Lord for guidance” (NLT). Notice the connection between the two. Jehoshaphat was terrified because he realized he was powerless. He understood that there was nothing he could do to alter the forces that were bearing down on him. So, he turned to the only One who could alter them. Jehoshaphat poured out his terror, desperation, and helplessness to the Lord in prayer. “O our God, won’t you stop them? We are powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack us. We do not know what to do, but we are looking to you for help” (verse 12 NLT). God replied through one of the men who was present. He said, “Do not be afraid! Don’t be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but God’s. Tomorrow, march out against them. You will find them coming up through the ascent of Ziz at the end of the valley that opens into the wilderness of Jeruel. But you will not even need to fight. Take your positions; then stand still and watch the Lord’s victory. He is with you, O people of Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out against them tomorrow, for the Lord is with you” (2 Chronicles 20:15–17 NLT). You’ll notice that God didn’t go into a lot of detail regarding His plan. He didn’t say, “First, I’m going to do this. Then I need you to do this.” Instead, He said, “Take your positions; then stand still and watch the Lord’s victory” (NLT). In other words, “You came to the right Source of power, Jehoshaphat. I’ve got it. Watch this.” Jehoshaphat and his army went out to meet their enemies, but they put their worship team out front. When this unconventional advance guard began to sing and praise the Lord, the enemies of Judah started fighting among themselves and destroyed each other. “So when the army of Judah arrived at the lookout point in the wilderness, all they saw were dead bodies lying on the ground as far as they could see. Not a single one of the enemy had escaped” (verse 24 NLT). Maybe you’re facing what seems like an impossible situation right now. Maybe you can’t see a way out. But God can. Call on Him. Then see what He does. Reflection question: What made you, or someone close to you, realize that nothing is impossible for God?

OBADIAH (SERVENT OF YAHWEHThere is at least twelve people name Obadiah in the Bible. Smiths Bible Dictionary The book of Obadiah is about Edom's judgment and Israel's restoration Obadiah means “Servant of Yahweh”. As a servant of Yahweh our desire is to work for Him and also to be pleasing to Him. The Deliverance and Restoration of Israel (Obadiah 1:17-18): Within this verse 17 we shall read of a title and type of Yahshua Messiah, we shall Him as a Deliverer - The verse speaks of deliverance on Mount Zion, which Christians interpret as a reference to the ultimate deliverance brought by Yahshua Messiah. This deliverance is seen as a type of the salvation Yahshua Messiah provides.17           Mount Zion = When the Bible speaks of ‘Jerusalem' it is often referring to her in her natural or fallen state – the way she is now. When she is called ‘Zion' it is referring to her in her Kingdom state, the way that she is going to be (holy) when Yahshua Messiah returns and sets up His millennial Kingdom. There is going to be deliverance = The world has always wanted to destroy the Jewish people. Because of Yahweh's promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob He has always kept a remnant alive. Their possessions = Once again we again we see that Hebrew word ‘ETH' showing us that these People are Yahweh's/Yahshua Messiah's People18  stubble = Hay or Straw. Everyone knows what happens when you put fire and straw together… There will be no survivor = The measure that Edom used will be measured back to him (Matthew 7:2). His desire was to destroy the remnant of Israel, so he will be left with no remnant. In the final 3 verses we can proclaim ‘The kingdom of the Lord'Note: Verses 19 &20 reveal to us that Yahweh is still interested in the land. In so many prophecies, Yahweh has promised to bring back the people so that they can settle and take possession of the land. There is a spiritual battle for the actual ground of Israel. Within this verse 19 we read the Hebrew ‘ETH' 4 times, showing us that this ‘ETH' Yahweh/Yahshua Messiah is truly in charged.The mount = 1st instance of ‘ETH'2nd instance of ‘ETH' ‘The plain of the Philistines'The fields = 3rd instance of ‘ETH'Benjamin shall possess Gilead = 4th instance of ‘ETH'. All four showing that Yahweh/Yahshua Messiah is in control!20   the captivity of this host = that is, the captives of this multitude of Israelites.The Kingdom of the Lord (Obadiah 1:21): The book concludes with the promise that "the kingdom will be the LORD's." Deliverers will ascend Mount Zion to judge the mountains of Esau, signifying the ultimate triumph of Yahweh's kingdom.

In this kickoff to the One Chapter Wonders series, Pastor Jeff McNicol draws a parallel between musical “one hit wonders” and the short yet powerful one-chapter books of the Bible—beginning with Obadiah. Written during the dark period after Jerusalem's destruction in 586 BC, Obadiah's prophecy confronts the nation of Edom—descendants of Esau—for their arrogance, indifference, and hostility toward Israel. The message challenges believers to confront pride, reject complacency, act courageously in the face of need, and rest confidently in God's justice and provision. Even in troubled times, the “plain truths” of Obadiah offer both conviction and hope.

It's the shortest book in the Old Testament (only 21 verses) yet the prophecy of Obadiah carries a message of justice, humility, and hope.Pastor Jeff Cranston revisits one of Kitchen Table Theology's most unexpectedly popular episodes: an overview of the book of Obadiah. We'll explore the historical conflict between Edom and Israel, the pride that led to Edom's downfall, and how this ancient prophecy still speaks to our hearts today.00:00 – Season Update and Introduction to ObadiahNext week we begin our “Practical Theology” series. Remember to tune in! 03:12 – Revisiting Obadiah & Historical Context Tracing the conflict between Edom (descendants of Esau) and Israel (descendants of Jacob), and how generations of hostility culminated in Edom's betrayal during Jerusalem's fall.06:45 – The Central Message of ObadiahHow pride became Edom's downfall, the certainty of God's justice, and the “day of the Lord” as a theme of divine judgment on all nations.11:02 – God's Promise of RestorationThe shift in the final verses from judgment to hope, with God promising deliverance for Zion and the establishment of His kingdom.14:28 – Lessons for Believers TodayWhy pride is spiritually dangerous, how God's justice ensures wrongs will be made right, and how Obadiah encourages believers to trust in God's sovereign plan."Pride was the root of Edom's downfall, and it's still the root of so much sin today."  – Pastor Jeff CranstonWe love your feedback!

Send us a textMulti-Metabolic Week focuses on the idea that MASLD and MASH are elements in a systemic set of Multi-Metabolic issues. This conversation is the second of two looking at the concept of the "Multi-Metabolic Clinic," a clinic that treats the entire spectrum of multi-metabolic diseases.This conversation starts by focusing on how the two clinics train other physicians and practices on multi-metabolic issues. The EDOM clinic in Spain is certified to provide nutritional training to other practices across the country, while the newer, smaller Trajectory Health Partners practice provides support on use of FibroScan and, more recently, Velacur from Sonic Incytes. Louise notes how important training is for optimal use of scanning devices, which includes both technical proficiency and knowledge of how to educate and motivate patients using the results of the scans. From there, the conversations shifts to focus on differences between treating patients in a conventional practice vs. a multi-metabolic one. The key differences involve length of patient visit and use of allied providers to educate patients more fully. Next, Louise asks whether the clinics have data on reducing the number of patients needing to go to a hospital. EDOM has data while the younger Trajectory has a clear sense this happens but no large-scale practice data to support this sense. Louise's last question is to ask how each physician would "sell" colleagues in their specialty on why to set up a multi-metabolic practice. The answers reflect the different specialties in which the physicians were trained originally (endocrinology in Spain, gastroenterology in the U.S.) but have significant common elements. 

August 17, 2025Numbers 21After facing rejection from Edom , Israel encounters hardships, leading them to complain and rebel. God punishes them with venomous snakes, but Moses intercedes, and God provides a solution through the bronze serpent.

Send us a text00:00:00 - Surf's Up: Season 6, Episode 11 This week, we modify our usual episode structure to focus on multi-metabolic practices and constructs. The multi-metabolic practices covered this week are run by non-hepatologists who have chosen to focus on the liver in a broader cardiometabolic context. They include two practices discussed during a two-part roundtable, one run by US gastroenterologist Dr. Karen Jerome-Zapadka and the EDOM practice in Spain, run by endocrinologists. The expert interview is with Dr. Emily Andaya, an internist who helms a cardiometabolic practice in Indiana, US, that focuses on the liver. 00:14:23 - Roundtable Part I: Groundbreaker and introductionThe core of the episodes started during the weekly groundbreakers, as guests began to describe the path that brought them from single-disease specialization to the broader multi-metabolic practice.. Immediately after the groundbreakers, participants describe their clinics today, including patient population and principles underlying their approach to treatment.00:26:15 - Roundtable Part II: Tools they useGuided by Louise, the specialists discuss the devices they use to screen and stage patients and the drugs they use to treat them. One interesting item that emerges is that EDOM relies on a 0-to-4 disease severity classification, but it does not align point-by-point with the 4-point fibrosis scale common in MASH. 00:40:28 - Roundtable Part III: Training Providers in the ClinicsLouise starts this segment by asking the EDOM team how they train practitioners in their clinic. EDOM trains practitioners in nutrition and technologists in the proper use of scanning devices. Karen comments that one big issue in re-training involves the length of visits: 15 minutes for a typical GI visit vs. 60 minutes for an initial multi-metabolic session and 30 minutes for follow-ups. Along with this, the information gathering technique are different.00:50:57 - Roundtable Part IV: Patient Health and Wrap-upLouise asks participants whether and how they have measured the impact the multi-metabolic approach has on patients' health (profound in both cases) and whether they are seeing an increase in HCC. Karen sees a difference among her long-term patients, while EDOM refers patients before their fibrosis reaches cirrhosis stage. In the last part of the episode, panelists share perspectives on how their initial specialties fit with the broader multi-metabolic practice and the kinds of impact they can have on patients.01:12:50 - Expert: Dr. Emily Andaya discusses US initiatives in multi-metabolic healthThis week's expert is Dr. Emily Andaya, an Indiana (US)-based internist whose practice has expanded to take on a multi-metabolic focus. She begins by discussing her recent attendance at the American Society for Preventive Cardiology (SPC) meeting in Boston, where she heard a talk by Dr. Christos Montzoros, an endocrinologist and multi-metabolic advocate, who emphasized the importance of incorporating the liver into preventive cardiology's focus. Louise and Emily agree that cardiometabolic focus involves evaluating general, overall health, but Emily discusses how this might require a deeper or broader testing protocol for each target organ. Emily describes the 4-point CKM scale and Louise asks how fibrosis or NAS scoring, as deployed in the MASH CRN system, might be valuable here. This is a far-ranging conversation, but one special point of interest involves the psychological benefit of telling a patient they need to treat one (multi-metabolic) condition, instead of separate heart, kidney, endocrinological and liver conditions, which might feel far more overwhelming. 01:48:48 - ConclusionBecause Roger is on vacation, there is no business report this week.

In this episode of Arise+Abide, Curtis and Sally explore 2 Kings 16:10-18 and 2 Chronicles 28:16-25, tracing the tragic reign of King Ahaz of Judah. Faced with military threats from Israel, Syria, Edom, and the Philistines, Ahaz turns not to the Lord but to Assyria for help—paying tribute with treasures from the Temple and even remodeling Judah's worship to imitate pagan practices. Instead of rescue, Assyria brings further oppression, and Ahaz sinks deeper into idolatry, closing the Temple and filling the land with altars to false gods. Curtis and Sally reflect on how Ahaz's decisions reveal a familiar human pattern: seeking success by imitating worldly power, trusting in human alliances instead of God, and hardening the heart when things go wrong. They contrast this with the call of Christ's kingdom, where true greatness comes through servanthood and trust in the Lord. The conversation challenges listeners to examine where they place their hope, to repent when tempted to rely on their own understanding, and to remember that ultimate victory belongs to God alone.

OBADIAH (SERVENT OF YAHWEHThere is at least twelve people name Obadiah in the Bible. Smiths Bible Dictionary The book itself does not include much information about Obadiah, nor the date and place of the book being written. The book of Obadiah is about Edom's judgment and Israel's restoration.According to Mark Rooker: “The book of Obadiah is a condemnation of Edom for her evil treatment of Judah during the time of Judah's greatest crisis, the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonian empire.” According to Walter Kaiser: “Obadiah's message was a prophecy against Israel's eastern neighbor, Edom, who was descended from Esau.”  In this morning's study we will continue to ‘Unravel the Words of Obadiah'. We will take a look at verses 14 thru 16. Obadiah means “Servant of Yahweh”. As a servant of Yahweh our desire is to work for Him and also to be pleasing to Him. This is really where it begins for each of us. Yahweh is not going to teach us, illuminate Biblical texts for us, or give us insight if we are not interested in serving Him or doing His work. Beginning with verse 10 we learned of Edom's destruction. With this verse 10 the scene now changes. Another picture of violence and cruelty now rises before the prophet's eyes. He sees Jerusalem surrounded by enemies and they are overcome. Strangers carry away captive her forces, foreigners enter into her gates. And there, not only standing aside in unbrotherly detachment from Jacob, but rejoicing with malicious joy, speaking words of proud scorn, doing acts of robbery and wrong, are seen within the Edomites. The two pictures, one of the past, the other of the future, Obadiah is commissioned to portray before the eyes of men, and to reveal the hidden link that binds them together in the relationship of cause and effect. Verse 10 contains a general statement of the sin and its punishment. In verses 11-14 the prophet writes in the impassioned strain of a spectator and describes at length the sin. The punishment is further described in verses 15-16.14  crossway = fork of the roads, or a mountain pass.Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossing = In a place where two or more roads met, to stop the Jews that fled, let them take which road they would: or, "in the breach"; that is, of the walls of the cityneither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of their distress = or "shut up"; they shut their brothers (Jacob) up in their houses, or stopped up all the avenues and ways by which they might escape, even such as remained of those that were killed or carried captive15  For = summarizing in connection with verse 10, wherein Edom was threatened with cutting off for ever.the day of Yahweh = The prophecy is now enlarged, and includes all the nations who were Israel's enemies.As you have done it will be done to you = The measure that you measure with will be measured back to you (Matthew 7:2). thy reward = the reward of thy deed. The payment that they have paid out to others is going to be revisited upon their heads16  ye ... upon my holy mountain = a periphrasis for, “ye Jews”, whom Obadiah now by a sudden apostrophe addresses. The clause, “upon My holy mountain,” expresses the reason of the vengeance to be taken on Judah's foes; namely, that Jerusalem is Yahweh's holy mountain, the seat of His temple, and Judah His covenant-people.as ye have drunk, etc. = namely, the cup of wrathswallow down = so as not to leave anything in the cup of calamity; not merely “drink”Join me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh!Have any questions?

Thursday with Tabitha 9. Obadiah by Tabitha Smith This week we've reached the little book of Obadiah. He was the most minor of the minor prophets, in that his book is the shortest! In fact, it's the shortest book in the whole of the Old Testament with just one chapter, containing 21 verses. ~ Obadiah means “one who serves Yahweh”. We're not told anything else about the prophet himself. In the course of the prophecy, the fall of Jerusalem (which happened in 586 BC) is referred to as a past event and the fall of Edom (which happened in 553 BC) as a future event. So it is likely that the book was written between these events. ~ To understand the background to Obadiah, we need to head back to Genesis, to the account of the brothers Jacob and Esau. These two non-identical twins were born to Isaac and Rebekah. Even from their birth, they showed signs of not exactly getting along. Esau was born first, all red and hairy, and Jacob followed after him, grasping his heel. They grew up to be very different. Esau was a skilled hunter, favoured by his father, whilst Joseph was an introverted man who preferred to stay with his mother in the proximity of the family tents. ~ Jacob famously tricked the hungry Esau out of his birth rite and later stole his father's blessing by disguising himself as his older brother and fooling the elderly, blind Isaac. So Esau swore revenge on his brother and fully intended to kill him. Rebekah helped Jacob to escape and he fled to the territory of his uncle Laban. There he met and married his wives, Leah and Rachel. Esau, who was also called Edom, married several wives, including an Ishmaelite woman (that is, a descendent of Abraham's first son by the slave girl Hagar). ~ Jacob and Esau did meet again some years later, and much to Jacob's relief and surprise, Esau didn't kill him on the spot but appeared to have forgiven him. Jacob still didn't trust him though, and he took his family off in a different direction to avoid having to be in close proximity to his brother's family. Jacob had 12 sons by his two wives and their two servants. His 4th son, one of Leah's children, was Judah, and from his line the tribe of Judah came into existence. From Esau's line came the tribe of the Edomites. The Edomites lived in the hill country of Seir. This was a mountainous region about 1500m above sea level. Their territory appeared to be impenetrable and they felt quite safe in their high dwellings. In Numbers 20 we read that after the Exodus from Egypt, the Israelites asked the Edomites for permission to pass through their territory along the King's Highway. The Edomites refused, adding to the tensions between these two tribes. However, in Deuteronomy 23:7-8, God commanded the Israelites that they should not hate an Edomite in view of the brotherly connection between the two tribes. ~ Edom was defeated by king Saul in the 11th century BC and subdued again by king David 40 years later. Edom became a vassal state of Israel but it was never completely de-stroyed. ~ Fast forward to the time of Obadiah, and we find that the tribe of Judah, the sole remnant of the original 12 tribes of Israel, had been conquered and the capital city of Jerusalem had fallen to the Babylonians. During the conquest of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar, some of the Judeans had tried to escape from the city and flee into the surrounding coun-tryside. The Edomites, rather than helping their neighbours and brothers in the time of their distress, sided with the foreign invaders and handed over the fleeing Israelites to the Babylonians. Psalm 137:7 recalls how the Edomites gloated over the destruction of Jeru-salem: Remember, O LORD, against the Edomites the day of Jerusalem, how they said, “Lay it bare, lay it bare, down to its foundations!” ~ The main theme of Obadiah is the judgement of the Edomites for the way they betrayed the people of Judah during the Babylonian invasion. ~ The first 15 verses of the book are addressed to the people of Edom. God scorns the pride and arrogance of the Edomites, who say to themselves, “who will bring me down to the ground?” (v3), referring to their perceived safety in their high mountain region. But God will bring them down and they will be punished for their evil deeds. The prophet mixes both past tense and future tense verbs when describing Edom's fate. This is a technique that can be found in prophetic writing, when future events are sometimes described as if they had already happened. ~ God's message through Obadiah is that Edom will be completely destroyed, with not a trace left behind. The main charges against Edom are found in verses 12-14: "But do not gloat over the day of your brother in the day of his misfortune; do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their ruin; do not boast in the day of distress. Do not enter the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; do not gloat over his disaster in the day of his calamity; do not loot his wealth in the day of his calamity. Do not stand at the crossroads to cut off his fugitives; do not hand over his survivors in the day of distress." ~ The judgement is summarised in verse 15: "As you have done, it shall be done to you; your deeds shall return on your own head." ~ The final part of the book relates to the people of Jerusalem. God promises that he will preserve a remnant of his people who will survive the exile and reclaim the land that is theirs, according to his plans and promise. To the devastated people of Judah, this would have been an incredible promise of hope. It seemed, to all intents and purposes, that their future was doomed and that God's promises to Abraham had come to nothing. But God promises that Judah will become like a raging fire once more, whilst Edom is reduced to stubble. Judah's time of judgement for her own sin would be over, and then God would judge her enemies. The final words of the book, in verse 21, declare that “the kingdom shall be the Lord's.” The promised land of the Old Testament foretells the reality of the greater promised land, which is the coming kingdom of God. Matthew's gospel in particular speaks of this prom-ised kingdom, which Jesus ushered in during his time on earth. The whole of the Bible is the story of this ultimate kingdom, reaching its climax in the book of Revelation. The king-dom of God is already here, but it is not yet fully here. That won't happen until Jesus re-turns. In chapter 11 of the book of Hebrews, the writer recounts the names of the men and women of the Old Testament who trusted in God's promises to them regarding the coming kingdom. He then writes in verse 13-16: “These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.” ~ This city is the new Jerusalem, the heavenly kingdom. Jesus used several metaphors to try to help his listeners grasp the nature of the kingdom of God. He described it as a tiny mustard seed which grew into a huge tree, or as a tiny amount of yeast which could make a whole batch of dough rise. From tiny, seemingly in-consequential beginnings, something great grows. When all seemed lost to the exiled people of Judah, God says “just wait and see what I will do”. And the glory of the final kingdom is made all the greater by the trial of the journey. ~ You and I are invited to be part of this coming kingdom of God. No matter how small and insignificant we might feel in the great plan of God, and no matter how dire our circumstances seem to be, we can be assured that God's kingdom is coming and we can be part of it. It is surprising and mysterious, hidden and yet revealed, wonderful and awesome. It is something new, something different, something glorious. It is possible for the wisest brains to miss it completely whilst little children understand and embrace it. ~ God is doing a new thing and he invites us to come and see. The prophet Isaiah recorded God's words to his exiled people: “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” (Isaiah 43:18-19) ~ Some 700 years after Isaiah, Jesus walked the streets of Jerusalem and declared: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6) ~ Even the seemingly obscure prophecy of Obadiah is part of Jesus' great story. It's all about him. Between the lines of prophecy about Edom and Judah we see the greater picture of God's redemption plan and his justice, mercy and grace. When the risen Jesus walked on the road to Emmaus and explained to the amazed disciples how the Law and all the prophets spoke about himself, I like to think that he said a bit about Obadiah. ~ We've got four more books to look at before this series draws to a close, and there are lots more interesting things to come as we look at Haggai, Zechariah, Joel and Malachi.

Jesus wasn't a Christian. He was a Jew. That truth alone is enough to unravel centuries of misunderstanding - and stir up the spiritual resistance of our age. In this powerful episode, Scott Volk shares his deeply personal journey from being an "ignorant Jewish pastor" to leading a global ministry that blesses both Jews and Arabs in the name of Yeshua.  With passion and clarity, Scott dismantles replacement theology, calls the Church to awaken from its apathy, and reminds us that Israel holds the key to God's redemptive plan for the world. From heartfelt humor to prophetic fire, this is more than theology. It's a wake-up call for the Church to embrace the Jewishness of Jesus, God's eternal promises, and the unity He desires among all people. Key Takeaways Jesus was never a Christian. He was, is, and always will be Jewish - and understanding that reshapes everything. The Church is missing a crucial piece. Without Israel, we don't just miss context - we miss God's plan. Ignorance isn't innocence. Even well-meaning pastors can miss the heart of God without revelation. God chose the weak - not the worthy. Israel isn't superior. It's chosen to showcase God's glory. Anti-Zionism often masks anti-Semitism. Scott draws a straight line from Haman to Hamas. We need a four-fold response: Pray. Provoke. Proclaim. Provide. This is how the Church blesses Israel biblically. Revival hinges on Israel. Romans 11 calls the salvation of the Jewish people “life from the dead.” True unity doesn't erase ethnicity. It celebrates the One who redeems every tribe, tongue, and nation. God gets the glory - not Israel, not America, not us. Humility is the only posture for this moment.

Pew Research indicates that half the world has a negative view of Israel due to Gaza. Nearly the entire world also recognizes Palestine too. Regardless of our personal or religious feelings about such things, propaganda tells us this is because the country is home to “chosen people,” but reality tells us it is because of the optics of what the country has been engaged in as practice and policy. Sound similar to ‘the terrorists hate America because of freedom'. And this is important to understand, because the world is being dragged to war because of second-hand prophecies. The idea of being blessed for supporting chosen people, or that the world will turn against Israel in the end times, or that Edom must be destroyed, are the result of rabid rabbis and religious zealots across a wide spectrum of beliefs; it is a result of manufacturing prophecy out of universal metaphors. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

We will take a look at verses 9 thru 13. Obadiah means “Servant of Yahweh”. As a servant of Yahweh our desire is to work for Him and also to be pleasing to Him. This is really where it begins for each of us. Yahweh is not going to teach us, illuminate Biblical texts for us, or give us insight if we are not interested in serving Him or doing His work. So far we have learned that Obadiah is a prophetic message against Edom, highlighting Yahweh's judgment for pride and injustice. It emphasizes divine justice, warning that Edom's betrayal and violence will lead to their downfall. Ultimately, it promises the restoration and deliverance of Israel, affirming Yahweh's sovereignty and the establishment of His kingdom.In our last study we learned in verse 6 that Esau is the ancestor of the Edomites. The book references him to highlight the family connection between Edom and Israel, as Esau was the brother of Jacob.We also seen in verse 8 that this refers to the mountainous region inhabited by the Edomites. It symbolizes the stronghold and pride of Edom, which will be brought low as part of Yahweh's judgment.9    Mighty ones: = The wise ones. Teman: = The Hebrew name for Yemen of today -south of what is traditionally a part of Edom. This is one of the coalition partners of Edom.Slaughter = A massacre.10    Violence = It is interesting to note that the Hebrew word for violence is “khaw-mawce'” [although the organization called ‘Hamas' (a Palestinian Islamic group that rules the Gaza Strip) say the meaning in Arabic is ‘zeal, bravery' etc] Incidentally this word is the same word used in the account of the flood (Genesis 6:13). The violence referred to here is the violence of those who love to cause suffering to others.Jacob = not merely his own brother, but his twin brother11  in the day = Beyom  = when.  It is the figure Synecdoche or transfer, by which a part is put for the whole, or the whole for a part.  What that "part" is must be determined by the context in each particular case. in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces = that is, at the time that the Chaldeans took Jerusalem, and carried captive as many of the forces of the Jews as fell into their hands12   thou shouldest not have looked on, &c. = All these are Prohibitive in Hebrew: i.e. they are addressed to Edom as from a spectator looking on and saying; "Look not thou, "&c. Looked upon the day of your brother: It is not good to look upon and gloat over the punishment of others. Instead of being grieved over what had happened to Jacob's descendants Esau took pleasure in it and rejoiced over the captivity, destruction, and distress of his kin.the day of thy brother = his day of disaster.spoken proudly. = Hebrew enlarged thy mouth [with laughter].neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress = or "magnified thy mouth"; opened it wide in powerful scoffing, and insulting language Join me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh!Have any questions?

This then was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah by their families; even to the border of Edom the wilderness of Zin southward was the uttermost part of the south coast.JOS.15:2 And their south border was from the shore of the salt sea, from the bay that looketh southward:JOS.15:3 And it went out to the south side to Maalehacrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side unto Kadeshbarnea, and passed along to Hezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karkaa:JOS.15:4 From thence it passed toward Azmon, and went out unto the river of Egypt; and the goings out of that coast were at the sea: this shall be your south coast.JOS.15:5 And the east border was the salt sea, even unto the end of Jordan. And their border in the north quarter was from the bay of the sea at the uttermost part of Jordan:JOS.15:6 And the border went up to Bethhogla, and passed along by the north of Betharabah; and the border went up to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben:JOS.15:7 And the border went up toward Debir from the valley of Achor, and so northward, looking toward Gilgal, that is before the going up to Adummim, which is on the south side of the river: and the border passed toward the waters of Enshemesh, and the goings out thereof were at Enrogel:JOS.15:8 And the border went up by the valley of the son of Hinnom unto the south side of the Jebusite; the same is Jerusalem: and the border went up to the top of the mountain that lieth before the valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the valley of the giants northward:JOS.15:9 And the border was drawn from the top of the hill unto the fountain of the water of Nephtoah, and went out to the cities of mount Ephron; and the border was drawn to Baalah, which is Kirjathjearim:JOS.15:10 And the border compassed from Baalah westward unto mount Seir, and passed along unto the side of mount Jearim, which is Chesalon, on the north side, and went down to Bethshemesh, and passed on to Timnah:JOS.15:11 And the border went out unto the side of Ekron northward: and the border was drawn to Shicron, and passed along to mount Baalah, and went out unto Jabneel; and the goings out of the border were at the sea.JOS.15:12 And the west border was to the great sea, and the coast thereof. This is the coast of the children of Judah round about according to their families.JOS.15:13 And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron.JOS.15:14 And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.JOS.15:15 And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjathsepher.JOS.15:16 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.JOS.15:17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.JOS.15:18 And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?JOS.15:19 Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs.JOS.15:20 This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families.JOS.15:21 And the uttermost cities of the tribe of the children of Judah toward the coast of Edom southward were Kabzeel, and Eder, and Jagur,JOS.15:22 And Kinah, and Dimonah, and Adadah,JOS.15:23 And Kedesh, and Hazor, and Ithnan,JOS.15:24 Ziph, and Telem, and Bealoth,JOS.15:25 And Hazor, Hadattah, and Kerioth, and Hezron, which is Hazor,JOS.15:26 Amam, and Shema, and Moladah,JOS.15:27 And Hazargaddah, and Heshmon, and Bethpalet,JOS.15:28 And Hazarshual, and Beersheba, and Bizjothjah,JOS.15:29 Baalah, and Iim, and Azem,JOS.15:30 And Eltolad, and Chesil, and Hormah,JOS.15:31 And Ziklag, and Madmannah, and Sansannah,JOS.15:32 And Lebaoth, and Shilhim, and Ain, and Rimmon: all the cities are twenty and nine, with their villages:JOS.15:33 And in the valley, Eshtaol, and Zoreah, and Ashnah,JOS.15:34 And Zanoah, and Engannim, Tappuah, and Enam,JOS.15:35 Jarmuth, and Adullam, Socoh, and Azekah,JOS.15:36 And Sharaim, and Adithaim, and Gederah, and Gederothaim; fourteen cities with their villages:JOS.15:37 Zenan, and Hadashah, and Migdalgad,JOS.15:38 And Dilean, and Mizpeh, and Joktheel,JOS.15:39 Lachish, and Bozkath, and Eglon,JOS.15:40 And Cabbon, and Lahmam, and Kithlish,JOS.15:41 And Gederoth, Bethdagon, and Naamah, and Makkedah; sixteen cities with their villages:JOS.15:42 Libnah, and Ether, and Ashan,JOS.15:43 And Jiphtah, and Ashnah, and Nezib,JOS.15:44 And Keilah, and Achzib, and Mareshah; nine cities with their villages:JOS.15:45 Ekron, with her towns and her villages:JOS.15:46 From Ekron even unto the sea, all that lay near Ashdod, with their villages:JOS.15:47 Ashdod with her towns and her villages, Gaza with her towns and her villages, unto the river of Egypt, and the great sea, and the border thereof:JOS.15:48 And in the mountains, Shamir, and Jattir, and Socoh,JOS.15:49 And Dannah, and Kirjathsannah, which is Debir,JOS.15:50 And Anab, and Eshtemoh, and Anim,JOS.15:51 And Goshen, and Holon, and Giloh; eleven cities with their villages:JOS.15:52 Arab, and Dumah, and Eshean,JOS.15:53 And Janum, and Bethtappuah, and Aphekah,JOS.15:54 And Humtah, and Kirjatharba, which is Hebron, and Zior; nine cities with their villages:JOS.15:55 Maon, Carmel, and Ziph, and Juttah,JOS.15:56 And Jezreel, and Jokdeam, and Zanoah,JOS.15:57 Cain, Gibeah, and Timnah; ten cities with their villages:JOS.15:58 Halhul, Bethzur, and Gedor,JOS.15:59 And Maarath, and Bethanoth, and Eltekon; six cities with their villages:JOS.15:60 Kirjathbaal, which is Kirjathjearim, and Rabbah; two cities with their villages:JOS.15:61 In the wilderness, Betharabah, Middin, and Secacah,JOS.15:62 And Nibshan, and the city of Salt, and Engedi; six cities with their villages.JOS.15:63 As for the Jebusites the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the children of Judah could not drive them out; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Judah at Jerusalem unto this day.

When we read from 2 Chronicles in our last episode, we covered Edom's rebellion against Judah during Jehoram's reign, wherein they separated from Judah and established their own king. Obadiah rebukes this nation for their rebellion in our first reading. A return to the book of Kings, now in the second part, means a little backtracking: in short, Jehoshaphat is king and Jehoram has not yet taken the throne. Ahab's son Ahaziah is now on the throne in Samaria of Israel, but he won't outlive the Lord's prophecy against Ahab which says that his family line would come to an end in the next generation. Last but not least, the prophet Elijah passes his mantle to Elisha who receives a double portion of Elijah's spirit.Obadiah - 1:03 . 2 Kings 1 - 6:10 . 2 Kings 2 - 11:43 . Psalm 119:81 - 17:31 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

“Even thou wast as one of them.” — Obadiah 1:11 Brotherly kindness was due from Edom to Israel in the time of need, but instead thereof, the men of Esau made common cause with Israel's foes. Special stress in the sentence before us is laid upon the word thou; as when Caesar cried to Brutus, […]

The Rage and Age of Gog and Magog Let's start with our familiar text: Awake, O north wind, And come, wind of the south; Make my garden breathe out fragrance, Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden And eat its choice fruits!” (So 4:16) This call to “Awake, O North” is thought to encompass three distinct calls recorded in 1. Jeremiah 31:7-8 (exiles of Israel), 2. Isaiah 41:25 (Messiah) 3. Gog and Magog (Ezek 38:2) Why are all three being called to "Awake" simultaneously? To awake in Scripture can have a few connotations. The contextual explanation is that there has been a period of inactivity, and the prophetic call is to arouse each group to action. Messiah will begin to gather the exiles who have aroused from a period of spiritual apathy, and simultaneously, Gog and Magog will awaken in that generation to create the chaos and darkness necessary to awaken Israel from spiritual "sleep." Because the gematria of Gog and Magog is 70 [Gimmel-Vav-Gimmel Vav-Mem-Gimmel-Vav-Gimmel, 3+6+3+6+40+3+6+3], they are thought to represent the symbolic 70 nations of the world, which will gather against both 1. Adonai and 2. Israel. Various commentaries make oblique references to Gog and Magog, but it will not be understood fully until the day arrives. Some say it is the descendants of Amalek among the nations. Amalek, from which King Agag arose, is the murderous spirit of Edom, or Rome, the fourth beast, headed by Babylon. In that sense, Gog (chief person) and Magog (his nation, people) has arisen in every generation to provoke the Holy One and people who trust in Him and obey Him. The Scriptures cited below reiterate that Gog and Magog are not a single ruler and nation, but a wicked remnant embedded among all nations. In some generations, they will rise up with enough strength and cunning to marshal huge numbers of the population to join their murderous schemes. The pre-millennial war will bring Israel to repentance, and Adonai Himself will destroy Gog and Magog with confusion, thunder, hail, blood, and lightning (Ezek 38-39). In other words, an amalgam of Egypt and Assyria's judgments. Psalm Two is traditionally associated with Gog of Magog: Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing?The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying,“Let us tear their fetters apart and cast away their cords from us!” He who sits in the heavens laughs, the Lord scoffs at them. Then He will speak to them in His anger and terrify them in His fury, saying, “But as for Me, I have installed My King upon Zion, My holy mountain.” (Ps 2:1-6) The commentators note that in this attack of Gog, it revisits an important precedent in Babel: at the tower of Bavel, the united conspirators agreed to attack Heaven itself. As a result, YHVH confused them, and the 70 languages of the nations were born. This is the traditional location of Nebuchadnezzar's golden statue. Amalek in the Torah portion Balak is referred to "first of the nations," in other words, the first to openly rebel against Heaven itself by attacking Israel in the wilderness; this "first" attack was also the first direct attack against Heaven since the "nation of mankind" attempted to penetrate it rebelliously at the Tower of Bavel. At the final attack of Gog from Magog, the nations will once again undertake to assemble and attack YHVH and Messiah DIRECTLY, thinking the Holy City Jerusalem has a “Patron” who will defend it. They believe this was the wicked Amalekite Haman's fallacy, attacking the Jews first instead of their God. Something will cause them to believe they have the wherewithal to wage war directly against YHVH and King Messiah. What do Gog and Magog have to do with the third “awakening” of the winds?

"Judgment, Restoration, and the Reign to Come”

Obadiah is an odd little book, announcing judgment on Edom, spelled as the Hebrew term for humanity, Adam. We suggest listening/reading to God's word in light of this nice little video that contextualizes this book amongst its other prophetic books. http://youtube.com/watch?v=i4ogCrEoG5s

THE SHORT BOOK of Obadiah prophesied judgment on the nation of Edom for its role in the destruction of Jerusalem by Babylon in 586 BC. However, Obadiah also prophesied a future reversal of fortunes, when, on the Day of Yahweh, the people of Israel would possess the lands of their tormentors—which includes Philistia (the Gaza Strip) and Zarephath (southern Lebanon, recently occupied by the IDF as a buffer zone against Hezbollah). Sharon's niece, Sarah Sachleben, was recently diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up. If you are led to help, please go to GilbertHouse.org/hopeforsarah.

Bilam was arguably as great as Moshe, so how is it possible his life's journey ended up so diametrically opposed to that of Moshe's?

Parshas Chukas: Our Story, Continued Our Parsha begins with the mysterious laws of the Parah Adumah and journeys through profound moments of loss, leadership, and legacy. From the death of Miriam to Moshe's request for safe passage through Edom, the Torah weaves a story not just of history—but of soul.  This is our story. One of pain and promise, of exile and return. And when we carry each other, even from afar, we step into something eternal.

In this Bible Story, we learn about the departure of Elijah. The faithful prophet is taken up into the clouds by chariots of fire. Elisha, his faithful student, took his place as prophet over Israel. Now he watches over the people, ministering to them in times of trouble. This story is inspired by 2 Kings 2. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is 2 Kings 2:11 from the King James Version.Episode 129: Joram, King Ahab's son was now King over Israel, and for 12 years he built a kingdom that fed his self-importance. Sick of being under Israelite subjugation, the nation of Moab rose in revolt. King Joram quickly sent word to King Jehoshaphat and the nation of Edom asking for help. As the three kings and their armies were marching up for battle they ran out of provisions. Frightened, the kings sent for Elisha that he might inquire of God on their behalf. Then Elisha prophesied water for the men, and victory over the Moabites.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

2 Chronicles 20 After this, the armies of the Moabites, Ammonites, and some of the Meunites[a] declared war on Jehoshaphat.2 Messengers came and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army from Edom[b] is marching against you from beyond the Dead Sea.[c] They are already at Hazazon-tamar.” (This was another name for En-gedi.) 3 Jehoshaphat was terrified by […]
