Commentary on the Book of Zephaniah

By: Brown, Claudius

The Book of Zephaniah is one of the twelve Minor Prophets found in the Old Testament of the Bible. Nestled among these shorter prophetic texts, the Book of Zephaniah may be easily overlooked, but its content and significance are far from minor. In this comprehensive exploration, we will delve into the background, structure, themes, and relevance of the Book of Zephaniah within the broader context of the Bible.
Historical Context:
To understand the Book of Zephaniah, it's crucial to grasp the historical backdrop against which it was written. Zephaniah prophesied during the reign of King Josiah of Judah, likely in the late 7th century BCE. This period was marked by political instability, as the Assyrian Empire, which had previously exerted dominance over the region, was waning, and the Babylonian Empire was on the rise. Additionally, Judah was grappling with rampant idolatry and moral decay, making it a nation in need of divine intervention and guidance.
