"The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst"
Zephaniah 3
Cliff Blair
Zephaniah delivers a message of both condemnation and hope to the people of Jerusalem. Her leaders are ravenous, her priests profane God’s sanctuary. Despite this, the Lord promises of preservation and transformation. This prophecy of judgment and redemption looks not only to the return from the Babylonian exile, but also as a foreshadowing of the broader salvation offered through Christ.
