Zephaniah — "Hidden by God"
Mar 3, 2025 • Matt Korff
Matt Korff introduces the study of Zephaniah by praying for understanding and openness to God’s word.
Matt provides a brief background on the historical, political, and geographical context of Zephaniah’s era. He delves into Judah’s separation from Israel, the Assyrian invasion, and the development of the term “Jews.” Additionally, he includes Jesus’ exchange with the Jews regarding their ancestry.
Zephaniah’s prophetic message condemns Judah and neighboring nations for their idolatry and sin, foretelling the imminent “day of the Lord” and destruction.
