For the day of the LORD is near upon all the nations: as you have done, it shall be done unto you: your reward shall return upon your own head.
All Commentaries on Obadiah 1:15 Go To Obadiah 1
Cyril of Alexandria
AD 444
Again the time of war is predicted [as in Joel] when the neighboring nations will join together against Edom to inflict bitter punishment. That day is truly called the Day of the Lord. For God the Lord was the one who handed them over to the Israelites in their wickedness and injustice. So that he might affirm that their divine punishment is just he says, “As you have done, so it will be done to you.” For nature is so arranged that everybody receives just treatment, and entirely equal wages are repaid to those who have undertaken similar actions. .
