Obadiah / Question
Question source
Obadiah
Obadiah says those “at peace with you” will deceive Edom and prevail against it, pushing it “to the border” (Obadiah 1:7). He also says people who eat Edom’s bread will set a trap under it, and “you have no understanding” (Obadiah 1:7).
7All the men of your alliance have brought you on your way, even to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you. Friends who eat your bread lay a snare under you. There is no understanding in him.
