Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Zephaniah 3:2

_ _ received not correction — Jerusalem is incurable, obstinately rejecting salutary admonition, and refusing to be reformed by “correction” (Jeremiah 5:3).

_ _ trusted not in ... Lord — Distrust in the Lord as if He were insufficient, is the parent of all superstitions and wickednesses [Calvin].

_ _ drew not near to her God — Though God was specially near to her (Deuteronomy 4:7) as “her God,” yet she drew not near to Him, but gratuitously estranged herself from Him.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Zephaniah 3:1-7.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Zephaniah 3:2

The voice — Of God by his mercy and judgments crying aloud.
