Bible Person
Meaning: servant of the Lord · Male · 1 cross reference
This Obadiah entry refers to a covenant signer in Nehemiah 10:5, not to the prophet or the many historical figures of the same name elsewhere. He belongs to the community leadership affirming post-exilic obedience. First appears in Neh 10:5.1
AI summary: This Obadiah matters because his single cross reference places him among those who formally bind themselves to covenant faithfulness after the exile. The entry helps show that restoration involved public commitment as well as private belief. Taken together, the material presents this Obadiah as a signer in the renewed covenant community.1
