Where the songs go in Obadiah

The 4 songs here set 3 of the 4 movements in Obadiah to music: “Though Thou Exalt Thyself as the Eagle” (Obadiah 1–9), “Thou Shouldest Not Have Looked” (Obadiah 10–14) and “As Thou Hast Done, It Shall Be Done unto Thee” (Obadiah 15–18).

Though Thou Exalt Thyself as the Eagle (Obadiah 1–9). The shortest book in the Old Testament is one message to one small nation.

Thou Shouldest Not Have Looked (Obadiah 10–14). The charge is precise, and it is about one particular day.

As Thou Hast Done, It Shall Be Done unto Thee (Obadiah 15–18). The day of the LORD is near upon all the nations, and the rule announced is the one Edom has been using: what you dealt out comes back on your own head.

Not in song here yet: “The Kingdom Shall Be the LORD’s”.
