On Down to Earth But Heavenly Minded Podcast. Notes On The Minor Prophets, by H A Ironside Loizeaux Brothers, Inc., Bible Truth Depot 19 West 21st Street, New York 10, N. Y. Preface It was with no definite purpose of writing a series of Notes on the Minor Prophets as a whole, that I first began to take up various books of the twelve, in monthly installments in Help and Food for the Household op Faith. But after penning some notes on Habakkuk, Jonah, and Obadiah, I found my own soul helped, and an interest developed in the further study of these much-neglected portions of Scriptures, and so took up Hosea and the books following. I have sought to press their practical application as giving important teaching for a remnant people in a day of decline, while not neglecting their dispensational bearing. This, I am persuaded, is what is greatly needed at the present moment. If God be pleased to use the Notes for the stirring of His people's consciences and the comfort of their hearts, the desired end will be realized. H. A. Ironside.

The Bible. In this series, I am doing the complete Bible using the ESV. I will break it down into Books and Chapters, having them in seasons, and make each episode number a chapter to make it easy to find what you are looking for. In other words, season 1 would be the first book, Genesis, and episode one would be chapter 1. This way you will see 66 seasons. https://www.hiawathabible.org/the-esv-audio-bible

How is your vision? Are you seeing things correctly? We all know the verse from Isaiah, where God says, My thoughts are not your thoughts. My ways are not your ways. I'd like to share a very practical way of understanding that. Probably the most well known rabbi in the latter half of the 20th century, was a Hasidic Rabbi by the name of Menachem Schneerson.

Chapter Two defines for us, the day of the Lord. Now God is good, he is faithful. And his faithfulness is seen in covenantal relationship. I've said, Never overestimate the importance of having a covenant with God, especially that new covenant. But as we look at chapter two of Zephaniah, we're going to see that the day the Lord is a course, not for believers, and not for Israel.

Are you sensitive to God's timing? If you're not on God's timetable, you're not going to be led by the Spirit. You are not going to be a recipient of that anointing of His Spirit. And you are not going to be able to serve God even though you may desire to. If you're not following his timing, you are living in the flesh. Take out your Bible and look with me to Zephaniah chapter one. And now we're ready for that 12 verse.

Names are important in the Scripture. And this prophet that we're going to begin to study now. Zephaniah, his name means hidden of the Lord. Now, there's two ways to understand this. There are things there are truths that God hides from the world. We know that Messiah spoke in parables, that will be those that see but don't perceive those who hear but don't understand. But there's a second way to understand his name.

Zephaniah Chapter 1 {1:1} The word of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hizkiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah. {1:2} I will utterly consume all [things] from off the land, saith the LORD. {1:3} I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the LORD. {1:4} I will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, [and] the name of the Chemarims with the priests; {1:5} And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship [and] that swear by the LORD, and that swear by Malcham; {1:6} And them that are turned back from the LORD; and [those] that have not sought the LORD, nor enquired for him. {1:7} Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD: for the day of the LORD [is] at hand: for the LORD hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath bid his guests. {1:8} And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD'S sacrifice, that I will punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as are clothed with strange apparel. {1:9} In the same day also will I punish all those that leap on the threshold, which fill their masters' houses with violence and deceit. {1:10} And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, [that there shall be] the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and an howling from the second, and a great crashing from the hills. {1:11} Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are cut down; all they that bear silver are cut off. {1:12} And it shall come to pass at that time, [that] I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The LORD will not do good, neither will he do evil. {1:13} Therefore their goods shall become a booty, and their houses a desolation: they shall also build houses, but not inhabit [them;] and they shall plant vineyards, but not drink the wine thereof. {1:14} The great day of the LORD [is] near, [it is] near, and hasteth greatly, [even] the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly. {1:15} That day [is] a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, {1:16} A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers. {1:17} And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. {1:18} Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.
Zephaniah Chapter 2 {2:1} Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired; {2:2} Before the decree bring forth, [before] the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD'S anger come upon you. {2:3} Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger. {2:4} For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noonday, and Ekron shall be rooted up. {2:5} Woe unto the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! the word of the LORD [is] against you; O Canaan, the land of the Philistines, I will even destroy thee, that there shall be no inhabitant. {2:6} And the sea coast shall be dwellings [and] cottages for shepherds, and folds for flocks. {2:7} And the coast shall be for the remnant of the house of Judah; they shall feed thereupon: in the houses of Ashkelon shall they lie down in the evening: for the LORD their God shall visit them, and turn away their captivity. {2:8} I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the revilings of the children of Ammon, whereby they have reproached my people, and magnified [themselves] against their border. {2:9} Therefore [as] I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, [even] the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them. {2:10} This shall they have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified [themselves] against the people of the LORD of hosts. {2:11} The LORD [will be] terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and [men] shall worship him, every one from his place, [even] all the isles of the heathen. {2:12} Ye Ethiopians also, ye [shall be] slain by my sword. {2:13} And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, [and] dry like a wilderness. {2:14} And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; [their] voice shall sing in the windows; desolation [shall be] in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work. {2:15} This [is] the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I [am,] and [there is] none beside me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, [and] wag his hand.
Zephaniah Chapter 3 {3:1} Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city! {3:2} She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God. {3:3} Her princes within her [are] roaring lions; her judges [are] evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the morrow. {3:4} Her prophets [are] light [and] treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law. {3:5} The just LORD [is] in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame. {3:6} I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passeth by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant. {3:7} I said, Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, [and] corrupted all their doings. {3:8} Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination [is] to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, [even] all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy. {3:9} For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent. {3:10} From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, [even] the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering. {3:11} In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain. {3:12} I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD. {3:13} The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make [them] afraid. {3:14} Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem. {3:15} The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, [even] the LORD, [is] in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more. {3:16} In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: [and to] Zion, Let not thine hands be slack. {3:17} The LORD thy God in the midst of thee [is] mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. {3:18} I will gather [them that are] sorrowful for the solemn assembly, [who] are of thee, [to whom] the reproach of it [was] a burden. {3:19} Behold, at that time I will undo all that afflict thee: and I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame. {3:20} At that time will I bring you [again,] even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD.
