Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Synoptical Lectures on the Books of Holy Scripture, Vol. 2 of 2: Zephaniah Revelation Habakkuk lived probably in the reign of Josiah. Zephaniah did so to a certainty; and, with his contemporary Jeremiah, deplored the perversity of his countrymen, and foreboded their punishment. The prophet gives his family descent for four generations; and if his ancestor Hizkiah or Hezekiah was, as is quite posssible, the king of that name, he was of royal extraction. He does not, however, place before us his own personality in his writings, or even express his own thoughts and wishes. His book of prophecy throughout is spoken by Jehovah. It is most strictly "the word of the Lord which came unto Zephaniah.´ A large portion of it is occupied with reproofs of sin and calls to repentance. From this we infer that Zephaniah prophesied before the reformation of worship enforced by King Josiah, or that the reformation did not deeply penetrate the national conscience. In Judah, the princes, priests, and people were corrupted in life, and prone to idolatry; so the contemporary prophets, who were faithful to God, were compelled to cry aloud against this obstinate degeneracy, and spare not. Jehovah was said to search Jerusalem with candles, that he might drag to light the proud and self-indulgent.
