" The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord God concerning Edom (Palestinians) ... I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised." (Obadiah 1-2)
It is a mistake to manipulate the meaning of sacred texts to suit your desires and preferences. The scriptures are not a tool for you to bend and twist according to your whims and wishes. They are the inspired word of God that reveals his will and his ways for his people. To distort the scriptures is to disrespect God and his authority and to deceive yourself and others. You should seek to understand and apply the scriptures faithfully and humbly, not twist them to fit your agenda or justify your actions.
Edom is an ancient land situated in what is now southwestern Jordan, between the Dead Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba. The Edomites possibly inhabited the area around the 13th century BCE. Although closely related to the Israelites (as per the Bible, they were descendants of Esau), they frequently engaged in conflicts with them and were likely subject to them during the time of the Israelite kingdom (11th-10th century BCE).
Edom flourished due to its strategic location on the trade route between Arabia and the Mediterranean and its copper industry at Ezion-Geber. Later, Edom and Moab were conquered by the Nabataeans, and the Edomites migrated to southern Judaea, where they were known in New Testament times as Idumaeans. It is important to note that Edom was never a part of modern-day Palestine, as it is a land of the past tense and so there is no possibility that it could apply to Palestine. Obadiah 1 and 2 does not refer to Palestine.
The meaning of this statement is clear. It is directly from the Bible without any room for interpretation.
However, it would appear there is a global rise in Antisemitism and Jews are the main group that are now being despised for the atrocities they are committing against the Palestinians. So once again you have everything twisted right around to suit your disgusting agenda. All of this will lead to the ultimate destruction of the United States for your role in this whole filthy saga.
Your rhetoric is potentially harmful because it implies you are either ignorant or dishonest about the Bible, and that you may face divine punishment for your online activity.
It is difficult to critique your newsletter as numerous errors require significant time and attention to address.
