The Vision of Obadiah_02 Obadiah 10-14 Because we have received God's grace and mercy, we are to have compassion and concern for the oppressed and distressed in our culture.Obadiah provides ample ways to condemn the prideful acts of our lost world. We are, in many ways, living in the modern day land of Edom and the parallels between then and now are striking.We have all had moments when someone close to us wronged us and got away with it. It hurts more to be hurt by a person close to you. We wonder: Will justice ever be served? The book of Obadiah doesn't just ask this question, it answers it.

Hell is as deep as heaven is high.
