The Book of Obadiah was taken from the King James translation of the Bible. The King James Translation is a masterwork of style, and the most important book in the English language, it has been the driving force in shaping the English-speaking world for hundreds of years.

The Book of Obadiah is an oracle concerning the divine judgment of Edom and the restoration of Israel. The text consists of a single chapter, divided into 21 verses, making it on of the shortest books in the Bible. The Book of Obadiah is sold at or near the publisher's cost and offered up for the collector who wished to have an unbroken set of keepsake editions.
