The Day That Swallows a Day
Obadiah 1:1–21
Obadiah is twenty-one verses long. It opens with one brother's betrayal of another on a specific day (586 BC) and ends with the declaration לַיהוָה הַמְּלוּכָה — a phrase Psalm 22 also makes, and that appears nowhere else in the canon. The little book carries a large argument.
