God's Word: Zephaniah

 God's Word: Zephaniah by ric gustafson


The author of this book is Zephaniah. The date of this book is 640-620 BC. This was during the reign of King Josiah. The book talks about a Day of the Lord that promises heavy judgment. Because of Judah's idolatry, all people, animals, birds and fish will all perish. God's wrath will also affect nearby nations. 
But there is hope. One day, God will restore a remnant of Israel. Zephaniah proclaims that he is the great great grandson of Hezekiah. God gave the people fair warning. For Christians, the Day of the Lord carries no fear.
