Sinopsis

Rev. Dr. Michael Koplitz is an ordained minister, author, teacher, and webmaster at BibleInteract.tv, a trans-denominational organization of Bible scholars, teachers and biblical archaeologists who share their knowledge of Scripture. He earned a Ph.D. in Hebraic Studies in Christianity from the Bible Learning University, a Doctor of Ministry degree in Christian Leadership from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, a Master of Divinity from Lancaster Theological Seminary, and a Bachelor of Science degree from Dickinson College (Carlisle, PA). He currently lives in York Pennsylvania with his wife, Sandy, where he has been a pastor at the United Methodist Church for over 18 years. Zephaniah was a prophet sent by the LORD to Judah during the reign of Josiah, after the reformation and cleaning of the Temple in Jerusalem in 621 BCE. In chapter two, verse thirteen Zephaniah tells us that the LORD was about to destroy Nineveh, which was the capital of the Assyrian empire. This assists in the dating of this prophecy. The subject of this book is God’s retribution and the great day of the LORD when God’s anger would be poured out against the nations of the Earth because of their sins, which included Judah. Religiously this was the worst period in Judean history for idolatry and desecrations of the Temple in Jerusalem. Dr. Koplitz’s desire to learn how the people in Jesus’ day approached and understood Scripture led him to study the Hebraic nature of the Bible and how the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) and the New Testament complement each other. By removing 1900 years of church filters and interpretation using ancient methods of Bible study, he has learned to hear and understand Scripture the way the people of the First Century did. Using these ancient methods, he presents this commentary on Zephaniah to help students of the Bible understand the original intent of this fascinating book of the Hebrew Scriptures.
