# General Information:
|
|
|
|
Yahweh continues giving Obadiah his message to Edom.
|
|
|
|
# All the men of your alliance ... The men who were at peace with you ... They who eat your bread
|
|
|
|
All three of these phrases refer to Edom's allies.
|
|
|
|
# your alliance
|
|
|
|
The word "your" refers to the nation of Edom.
|
|
|
|
# will send you on your way to the border
|
|
|
|
"will send you out of their land." The people of Edom will try to take refuge in the land of their allies, but their allies will not let the people of Edom stay in their land.
|
|
|
|
# There is no understanding in him.
|
|
|
|
Possible meanings are 1) the allies say this about Edom. Alternate translation: "They say, 'Edom does not understand anything.'" or 2) this is a statement about the betrayal of the allies. Alternate translation: "No one can understand why they did this."
