C. judgment on Israel’s neighbors 2:4-15Since all people need to seek the Lord (Zephaniah 2:3), Zephaniah revealed that judgment was headed for the nations around Judah as well as for Judah. He selected nations that lived in four directions from Judah to represent all the nations. Philistia lay west of Judah, Moab and Ammon east, Ethiopia south, and Assyria north."He [God] would also judge nations that were near as well as nations that were far away. Those near would be plundered and possessed... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Zephaniah 2:6-7

The flat Philistine seacoast would become depopulated pastures, and its caves-there are many in Judah and Mt. Carmel-would serve as refuges for shepherds and folds for sheep. After this destruction, the survivors from Judah would take possession of the coastal plain and pasture their sheep there. They would also take over the houses in Ashkelon and make them their homes because Yahweh would care for this remnant and restore their fortunes (cf. Zephaniah 3:20; Genesis 15:18-20). read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Zephaniah 2:1-15

Jehovah’s impending Judgment upon Judah’s Neighbours and FoesThe universal note which is struck in Zephaniah 1:2-3 is now further amplified. Jehovah’s agents of punishment, the Scythians, shall carry desolation along the Philistine plain to Egypt (as they actually did), and to the nations E. of the Jordan and Dead Sea, and even to distant Assyria, which in 605 b.c. fell before them.1-3. Exhortation to repentance. The Heb. text is exceedingly doubtful. It is also not clear whether or not... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Zephaniah 2:4-15

(4-15) Jehovah’s chastisement of foreign powers. These Divine visitations are introduced somewhat abruptly. The connection is perhaps that they are intended to lead God’s people to repent, and put their faith in Him who orders the destinies of all mankind. Also, as being inflicted on hostile peoples, they are in Israel’s favour, and ought therefore to elicit gratitude. But more especially are they all steps towards the establishment of Jehovah’s supremacy, and the inclusion of the Gentiles in... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Zephaniah 2:6

(6) Dwellings and cottages for shepherds.—Better, places for shepherds’ pastures. In c’rôth (best taken as plural of car, “a pasture”) there is a paronomasia on c’rêthîm of Zephaniah 2:5. The term “sea coast” (literally, line of the sea) here, as in Zephaniah 2:5, designates maritime Philistia. This tract of country is represented as ravaged and depopulated, so as to be serviceable only as a mere sheep-walk. Afterwards (Zephaniah 2:7) the restored exiles of Judah make it their pasture-ground.... read more

(7) Visit them.—For their relief, not their punishment. This is plain from the context; but such a use of the verb is rare. read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Zephaniah 2:4-15

NINIVE DELENDAZephaniah 2:4-15THERE now come a series of articles on foreign nations, connected with the previous prophecy by the conjunction for, and detailing the worldwide judgment which it had proclaimed. But though dated from the same period as that prophecy, circa 626, these oracles are best treated by themselves.These oracles originally formed one passage in the well-known Qinah or elegiac measure; but this has suffered sadly both by dilapidation and rebuilding. How mangled the text is... read more
