Comentário sobre Obadias 1:1
חֲז֖וֹן עֹֽבַדְיָ֑ה כֹּֽה־אָמַר֩ אֲדֹנָ֨י יְהוִ֜ה לֶאֱד֗וֹם שְׁמוּעָ֨ה שָׁמַ֜עְנוּ מֵאֵ֤ת יְהוָה֙ וְצִיר֙ בַּגּוֹיִ֣ם שֻׁלָּ֔ח ק֛וּמוּ וְנָק֥וּמָה עָלֶיהָ לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
Visão de Abdias. Assim diz o SENHOR Deus a respeito de Edom: Temos ouvido novas da parte do SENHOR, e por entre as nações foi enviado um mensageiro a dizer: <span class="x" onmousemove="Show('perush','As fases dos reinados das nações pela história terminará com a queda do reinado de Edom, que principia com a ascensão de Roma e seu Império, e perdura após por potências no ocidente, uma após outra, cada uma mais elevada e mais poderosa que a antecedente.');" onmouseout="Hide('perush');">Levantai-vos, e levantemo-nos contra ela para a guerra</span>.
Rashi on Obadiah
The vision of Obadiah—Why is Obadiah different that he was chosen to prophesy concerning Edom and did not prophesy any other prophecy? Our Sages of blessed memory stated: Obadiah was an Edomite proselyte. Said the Holy One, blessed be He: From them and in them will I bring upon them. Let Obadiah, who dwelt between two wicked people, Ahab and Jezebel, and did not learn from their deeds, come and impose retribution upon Esau, who dwelt between two righteous people, Isaac and Rebecca, and did not learn from their deeds. [from Sanhedrin 39b]

Abarbanel on Obadiah
The words of the prophet Ovadiah are one single prophecy only, therefore I haven't divided it into separate prophecies. And on it I have six questions.

Abarbanel on Obadiah
The first question is whether this propechy that Ovadiah said about Edom was already fulfilled by Nevuchadnezer after he conquered Eretz Yisrael and destroyed Jerusalem, he then subjegated the kingdoms of the nations surrounding including Egypt, Amon, Moav, Edom and the other nations as it says in the book of Jeremiah. Alternatively, was this prophecy fulfilled afterwards in the days of Hurkanas, the Hasmonean king who went to the land of Edom and struck Edom and subjegated its pride and made them work and pay taxes and made them do bris milah like it's told in the works of Yosef Ben Gurion. Or, rather, this is a propehcy that hasn't yet been fulfilled and will be in the future.
