Study 3 From the Book of Zephaniah is: Zephaniah 3:8-20
With this lesson we end the book of Zephaniah. We will start the
book of Nahum Tomorrow
1.
Throughout this passage the Lord is seen acting. What is He
pictured as doing? How many of these actions were, or can now be, fulfilled in
Christ? Are there some which still await fulfillment, and, if so, why?
2.
Consider the character of the remnant that the Lord leaves
(verses 12, 13). Compare 2:3; and contrast 2:1; 3:1, 2. Does 3:17 suggest a reason for this change of
character? How is it brought about? Cf. 2 Cor. 5: 17; Eph. 4:24.
Note.
Verses 9:12. To ‘seek refuge in the name of the Lord’ is an expressive figure
for trust in the Lord’s revealed character.
Truly to call Him Lord means to acknowledge Him as such, and to give Him
the service that is His due. Cf. 1 Pet. 3:6a.
