Description:Excerpt from The Unheeding God, Vol. 1: And Other Sermons "And it shall come to pass at that time I will search Jerusalem with candles, and I will punish the men who are settled upon their lees; that say in their hearts, The Lord will not do good, neither will He do evil." Zeph. i. 12. This obscure prophet Zephaniah was probably a descendant of the great king Hezekiah, and delivered his message in the earlier years of Josiah, who had set himself to resuscitate and extend the work of his godly ancestor. Between these two beneficent reigns there came the degrading reactions in favour of idolatry associated with the names of Manasseh and Amon. True, there was a transient gleam of better things in the closing days of Manasseh, but his son was captured by the party of superstition and reverted to his fathers earlier and baser policy. In the opening years of Josiah, this young prophet of princely blood found the rich and the prosperous either hostile or indifferent to reform. Little improvement had been effected by regents and counsellors during the minority of Josiah, and his personal assumption of power did not give promise of great and impressive results.
