Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root עָבַד (avad), meaning "to serve" or "to worship," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew name Obadiah in the Strong's Greek Concordance, as it is a proper noun specific to Hebrew culture and context. However, the concept of a "servant of God" can be related to Greek terms like δοῦλος (doulos, Strong's Greek 1401), meaning "servant" or "slave," often used in the New Testament to describe followers of Christ. Usage: The name Obadiah is used in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun, referring to multiple individuals. It is most notably the name of a prophet and the title of the book attributed to him. Context: • Obadiah the Prophet: Obadiah is recognized as one of the twelve minor prophets in the Hebrew Bible. The Book of Obadiah, the shortest book in the Old Testament, consists of a single chapter with 21 verses. It primarily addresses the judgment of Edom, a nation descended from Esau, Jacob's brother. The prophecy condemns Edom for its pride and its violence against Judah, predicting its downfall and the restoration of Israel. The book emphasizes themes of divine justice and the sovereignty of God over all nations.
