Zephaniah
The day of the Lord announced, and a remnant gathered and sung over.
About Zephaniah
Zephaniah preached during Josiah’s reign and warns of a coming day of the Lord against Judah and the surrounding nations, targeting complacency in particular — those who assume God will do nothing either way. The final chapter turns sharply, promising a humble remnant restored, and closes with the unusual image of God rejoicing over his people with singing.
