Obadiah 1 · Grade 3

Pride Comes Down

Name Date

Read the Story

Obadiah 1:1 calls this book the vision of Obadiah. It is a message from Yahweh about Edom. The people of Edom came from Esau, the brother of Jacob.

Edom lived in the clefts of the rock. Their home was high. They asked who could ever bring them down. Yahweh said that even if they flew high like an eagle, he would bring them down.

When strangers came against Jerusalem, Edom stood on the other side. Yahweh told Edom not to look down on their brother or be glad about his trouble. As they had done, it would be done to them. But on Mount Zion there would be people who escape, and the kingdom will be Yahweh's.

Memory Verse

“The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high, who says in his heart, ‘Who will bring me down to the ground?’”
