Theological Reflections

"Zephaniah 2:12 pronounces shame and slaughter on Cush (Ethiopia); how does this judgment on a foreign nation deepen the book’s theme of Yahweh’s universal sovereignty and justice, and what theological implications does it have for how Israel (and readers today) should understand God’s relations to and responsibilities toward other nations?"
