Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Obadiah 1:16

For as ye have drunk - Revelry always followed pagan victory; often, desecration. The Romans bore in triumph the vessels of the second temple, Nebuchadnezzar carried away the sacred vessels of the first. Edom, in its hatred of God’s people, doubtless regarded the destruction of Jerusalem, as a victory of polytheism (the gods of the Babylonians, and their own god Coze), over God, as Hyrcanus, in his turn, required them, when conquered, to be circumcised. God’s “holy mountain is the hill of... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Obadiah 1:15-16

Obadiah 1:15-16. For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen The sacred writers call that the day of any persons, in which they do or suffer any thing very remarkable. Thus, Obadiah 1:13, the day of thy brother, signifies that time in which he was remarkably afflicted. So the day of the Lord signifies that time in which he does something extraordinary; and here it means the time in which God would inflict a remarkable vengeance upon the enemies of Judah. By all the heathen, ... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Obadiah 1:15-21

The day of the Lord (15-21)In the day of the Lord, God will intervene in human affairs and punish sinners according to their sins. The Edomites celebrated their plunder of Jerusalem by holding wild drinking parties among the ruins of the temple on Mt Zion. They, as well as Jerusalem’s other enemies, will now be drunk in a different way. They will drink the cup of God’s wrath until, unable to stand any longer, they will stagger and fall (15-16).Having punished Jerusalem’s enemies, God will... read more

"For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the nations drink continually; yea, they shall drink, and swallow down, and shall be as though they had not been.""For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain ..." The antecedent of "thou" is "thee" (Obadiah 1:1:15), "all the nations." "Obadiah regarded Edom as a type of the nations that were hostile to the Lord and to his people";[19] and in Obadiah 1:1:15,16, it is that application to all wicked nations which Obadiah was declaring.... read more

16. ye . . . upon my holy mountain—a periphrasis for, "ye Jews" [MAURER], whom Obadiah now by a sudden apostrophe addresses. The clause, "upon My holy mountain," expresses the reason of the vengeance to be taken on Judah's foes; namely, that Jerusalem is God's holy mountain, the seat of His temple, and Judah His covenant-people. :-, which is copied from Obadiah, establishes this view (compare 1 Peter 4:17). as ye have drunk, c.—namely, the cup of wrath, being dispossessed of your goods and... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Obadiah 1:16

Edom had her "day" on the Lord’s holy mountain, Jerusalem, when she failed to help her brother, Israel. Likewise, all the nations would have their "day" dominating Jerusalem and the Jews, during "the times of the Gentiles" (Luke 21:24). We live in "the times of the Gentiles." This period of history began when Nebuchadnezzar removed Israel’s sovereignty in 586 B.C. and will end when Jesus Christ returns to the earth and restores Israel’s sovereignty. During "the times of the Gentiles" Israel is... read more
