What Does Obadiah 1:20 Mean the exiles of this host of the IsraelitesObadiah’s prophecy looks ahead to a scattered people who have survived judgment and captivity. The Lord calls them “exiles,” yet they remain the covenant “host of the Israelites,” still His people and still under His promises (Jeremiah 30:10–11). • God never loses track of His remnant; even in dispersion He keeps count (Amos 9:9). • The passage reassures every generation that no distance or circumstance can revoke God’s claim on His own (Isaiah 43:5–7). will possess the land of the Canaanites The same land once dominated by Israel’s enemies will be inherited by returning Israelites. This is a reversal of fortunes that fulfills Deuteronomy 30:3–5, where God promised to “bring you back and give you the land.” • What Edom, Philistia, and other Canaanite peoples seized will not remain theirs forever (Psalm 2:8; Zephaniah 2:5–7). • The verb “possess” highlights legal, permanent ownership—God is restoring not just residency but rightful dominion (Numbers 33:53). as far as Zarephath Zarephath lay on the Mediterranean coast between Tyre and Sidon (1 Kings 17:9–10). Mentioning this distant northern town paints the breadth of the reclaiming. • The border extends well beyond Judah’s traditional territory, echoing the promise to Abraham that his descendants would spread “from the river of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates” (Genesis 15:18). • It also alludes to Elijah’s ministry in Zarephath, reminding readers that God can sustain and restore His people even in foreign places (1 Kings 17:15–16). the exiles from Jerusalem who are in Sepharad A second group comes into view—those carried away from Jerusalem itself, now living in a place called Sepharad (likely in Asia Minor). Though unknown to many today, God knows exactly where His people dwell (Psalm 139:7–10). • Their mention underscores that no deportation site is beyond His plan (Isaiah 11:11–12). • The pairing of northern Zarephath and distant Sepharad suggests a global regathering, not a partial one (Ezekiel 36:24). will possess the cities of the Negev The Negev, a southern desert region, will be dotted with thriving Israelite towns. What was once barren or enemy-held becomes fruitful and secure (Isaiah 35:1–2). • Reversing Edomite incursions into the Negev (Numbers 20:14–21), God restores territorial integrity (Ezekiel 25:12–14). • This southern possession balances the earlier northern reference to Zarephath, portraying full land restoration “from north to south” (Zechariah 8:7). summary Obadiah 1:20 promises that scattered Israelites—whether exiled to Phoenician, Anatolian, or desert regions—will return and permanently inherit every inch of covenant land. God’s faithfulness gathers His people from every corner, overturns enemy gains, and reinstates Israel in the north (Zarephath), south (Negev), and all in between. The verse showcases the Lord’s meticulous memory of His promises and His unstoppable plan to redeem and restore His chosen nation. Verse 20. - And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; Septuagint, Καὶ τῆς μετοικεσίας ἡ ἀρχὴ αὔτη τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραὴλ γῆ τῶν Ξαναναίων ἕως Σαρεπτῶν, "And this shall be the beginning of the captivity of the children of Israel, the land of the Canaanites as far as Sarepta." This would imply that the Ephraimitas should be the first to go into exile, and on their return should occupy the territory of the Canaanites on the north. But ἀρχὴ may mean "domain." Vulgate, Et transmigratio exercitus hujus filiorum Israel, omnia loca Chananaeorum usque ad Sareptam. The general meaning is that Jewish captives, who have been taken to other lands, shall return and possess the cities of the south. The sentence in the Hebrew is incomplete. Our translators supply, "shall possess." Pusey (in agreement with the Chaldee, and virtually with the Septuagint) renders, "which are among the Canaanites;" and this seems to be correct, making "shall possess the cities of the south" the predicate of both clauses. So the first portion of the verse means, as Henderson says, the number of Israelitish captives which were found in Phoenicia, into which they had been sold at different times as slaves (comp. vers. 11, 14; Joel 3:6, 7). This host. Not a general deportation, but only the portion of the people referred to. From this expression some have inferred that Obadiah himself was one of this body. This is possible, but not necessary. The captives who are among the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; as far as Zarephath, were probably placed there for safe keeping before being sold into Greece and other countries. Zarepbath ("Melting house"), the Sarepta of St. Luke (Luke 4:26), now Surafend or Sarafend, and celebrated in the history of Elijah (1 Kings 17:9, etc.), lay between Tyre and Sidon, a little inland, and was a town of some importance, as its ruins prove. The captivity of Jerusalem. The captives from Jerusalem. Which is in Sepharad; Septuagint, ἕως Ἐφραθά "as far as Ephrathah;" Vulgate, quae in Bosphoro est. The name occurs nowhere else in the Bible, and its identification cannot be established. Jerome suggests, in his commentary, that it is the Assyrian for "boundary," and not a proper name at all. The Peshito and the rabbins And modern Jews interpret it as "Spain." Keil supposes it to be "Sparta;" Pusey, "Sardis." For this last explanation some ground has been found in an inscription of Nakshi-Rustam, where a place called Cparda occurs in a list of tribes between Cappadocia and Ionia; and Cparda is considered to be the Persian form of Sardis (see Schrader, 'Keilinschr.,' p. 445, etc.). A further confirmation of this identification is found in the complaint of Joel (Joel 3:6 [4:6, Hebrew], that the Phoenicians had sold Israelites "unto the sons of the Grecians." Professor Sayce, in a note to G. Smith's 'History of Babylonia,' p. 156, places "Saparda" on the Black Sea. It may be questioned, however, whether some town nearer Judaea is not intended. Ewald would read "Sepharam," a town in North Palestine. The two bodies of captives shall possess the cities of the south. The Negeb. The cities are named in Joshua 19.Parallel Commentaries ...
