And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a
flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in
them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the
house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it. (Obadiah 1:18)

Question – It seems like Obadiah 1:18 is saying that every Edomite will be killed and there is no chance of them being saved. I tried to go into the Hebrew but it seems to be saying again that all Edomites will be killed. My question is Obadiah 1:18 literally stating that all people of Esau will be killed? Different commentaries say different things.
