#### Who wrote the Book of Zephaniah? ####
Zephaniah is the author of this book. But four different Old Testament people are named Zephaniah. This Zephaniah was probably the great-grandson of King Hezekiah and a cousin to King Josiah. Zephaniah lived in the city of Jerusalem. He began to prophesy about seventy years after the prophets Isaiah and Micah. Zephaniah spoke Yahweh's messages during the reign of King Josiah (about 640621 B.C.), and just before Jeremiah began to prophesy.
