34 - Obadiah

Kirk Reflections 7th September 2025.Revd. Erick du Toit brings this week's reflection from Kirkliston Parish Church, Scotland.ObadiahThis week we’re looking at Obadiah (Oh-but-did-I-?)He prophesied against Israel’s foes who joined those scandalous Babylonians in pillaging the cities surrounding Jerusalem.

What could have possibly happened between them that led to this rift?
