Zephaniah
The call to silence introduces the nearness of “the day of the LORD.” Zephaniah portrays that day as the LORD’s prepared sacrifice with invited guests, emphasizing the certainty and seriousness of the event (Zephaniah 1:7).
7Be silent at the presence of the Lord Yahweh, for the day of Yahweh is at hand. For Yahweh has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.
