|
prophet is placed last, as he was last in time, of all the minor
|
||
|
|
prophets before the captivity, and not long before Jeremiah, who lived
|
||
|
|
at the time of the captivity. He foretels the general destruction of
|
||
|
|
Judah and Jerusalem by the Chaldeans, and sets their sins in order
|
||
|
|
before them, which had provoked God to bring their ruin upon them,
|
||
|
|
calls them to repentance, threatens the neighbouring nations with the
|
||
|
|
like destructions, and gives encouraging promises of their joyful
|
||
|
|
return out of captivity in due time, which have a reference to the
|
||
|
|
grace of the gospel. We have, in the
|
||

|
<A HREF="http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?version=KJV&passage=Zep+1:1">first verse</A>,
|
||
|

|

|
|
an account of the prophet and the date of his prophecy, which
|
||
|
|
supersedes our enquiry concerning them here.</P>
