AB 24d: Obadiah
A New Translation with Introduction and Commentary.
Obadiah exemplifies the classic Israelite prophetic tradition. This brief but
volatile diatribe encompasses many of the great prophetic themes, such as
divine judgment against Israel's enemies, the day of Yahweh, Zion theology,
Israel's possession of the promised land, and the kingship of Yahweh. These
themes allow Obadiah to transcend time and touch upon some of the modern Middle
East's most controversial issues. Its harsh language and pro-Israelite zeal
spark debate even today. Through his accurate translation and sympathetic
interpretation of what the book meant to its original sixth-century audience,
Dr. Paul R. Raabe relates the reader's modern world to that of the ancient Near
East.
In the reverend Anchor Bible tradition, the commentator provides the contextual
framework to make sense of Obadiah's cryptic and often ignored prophetic
message. Drawing upon an exhaustive analysis of the books grammar and
philology, literary forms and context, religious and social situation, and
historical context, Dr. Raabe offers us the most informed and up-to-date
commentary available. Scholars, students, clergy, and laypeople will rely on
Obadiah for years to come.
Series: Anchor Yale Bible, volume 24D.
