Reading for November 7th

Read Zephaniah 3.1-7 Jerusalem is indicted.
The sins listed here, together with those in 1.4-9, are the basis for the devastating
judgment described in 1.2-2.3.
In verse 1 the oppressing city is Jerusalem, Judah's capital.
In verses 3-4 while Zephaniah's first indictment of Judah's sins focuses on the worship
of other gods (1.4-9), this indictment focuses, as do those of Micah (4.6-8),
on Judah's political and religious leadership.
In verse 7 the city is Jerusalem.
