Zephaniah, Nahum, and Habakkuk

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Making the Hebrew prophets of the seventh century BCE readable and accessible to the general reader is a daunting task. Placed in hazy historical situations and expressed in often obscure language, those prophets struggled to deliver the word of God on dire topics of war and violence. Jack R. Lundbom, a renowned Old Testament scholar and an experienced pastor, has embraced this task with solid academic rigor and much pastoral care. That is indeed what it takes to pass on the message of these ancient prophets to our modern societies. The recent increased number of conflicts in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe urge us to hear the message and speak it loud and clear. Lundbom’s brief but compelling commentary on Zephaniah, Nahum, and Habakkuk can certainly help us to do so.”
