Introduction
The prophet, having declared the judgments which were ready to fall on his people, earnestly exhorts them to repentance, that these judgments may be averted, Zephaniah 2:1-3 . He then foretells the fate of other neighboring and hostile nations: the Philistines, Zephaniah 2:4-7 ; Moabites and Ammonites, Zephaniah 2:8-11 ; Ethiopians, Zephaniah 2:12 ; and Assyrians, Zephaniah 2:13 . In the close of the chapter we have a prophecy against Nineveh. These predictions were accomplished chiefly by the conquests of Nebuchadnezzar.
