Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Obadiah
The principal reasons offered for the partition are (i) The enemies of Edom in vss. 1 - 9 are the nations who are aroused by Yahweh to execute vengeance upon their former friend and ally, whereas according to vss. I5 ff, the judgment proceeds from Yahweh, and Israel is the instrument for its execution: (2) Vss. '1 - 9 represent Edom's chief sin as his pride and defiance of Yahweh himself because of reliance upon his stronghold, while in the latter part of the book the punishment is visited solely because of his treacherous conduct against his brother nation, Judah. (3) The literary style of the two parts is entirely different. The first, abounding in striking figures, rich in thought, and concise in statement, is full of life and action; but the second, in marked contrast, is lacking in ideas, as well as vigor of expression.
