The Book of Zephaniah opens with thunder — judgment, destruction, and divine fury. But stay tuned: by the end, it turns into one of the most beautiful songs of hope in the Bible. Zephaniah warns of a "Day of the Lord," when corruption and idolatry will collapse, yet promises a purified people and a God who "rejoices over you with singing." It's a prophecy that moves from apocalypse to renewal — proof that even after the darkest night, divine joy is waiting to break through.
