The book of Zephaniah, written in 612 B.C., provides a prophetic glimpse into the future. The author addresses the rampant idolatry and the worship of pagan gods among the people of Jerusalem. The text speaks of impending judgement and destruction, yet offers hope for a remnant who seek righteousness and humility. Through vivid imagery, Zephaniah depicts a time when lions will become shepherds, and justice and peace will prevail.
