Interpretation and reception

Sefer ha-Geulah (Book of Redemption)

Moses ben Nahman (Nachmanides)

Argues that return under Ezra included only a remnant of the northern tribes, so prophetic restoration of the whole people remains outstanding; connects Obadiah's House of Joseph with future deliverance.
