Hating Your Neighbor: the upside of Obediah
from Buzz King: Grace & Joy thru Scripture · host BuzzKing
I once had a neighbor who kept me up all night with loud rock and roll. Then one day, there was a massive car accident in front of our two buildings. I discovered that just as we see in Obediah, my neighbor apparently had learned a lesson. In Obediah, we see a people called the Edomites who assist the Babylonians in conquering the people of Israel - the neighbors and linguistic cousins of the Israelites. We look at the typical, simplistic theory of Obediah, one that has to do with God's vengeance - and then we look a little deeper.
