Commentary

Commentary on Zephaniah 1:10

Theological / Devotional

Noise. The Babylonians are now pictured as breaking into the places where the merchants and usurers dwelt.

Fish gate. Probably in the middle of the northern wall of the city. It was so called because nearby was a fish market, where the Tyrians sold their fish (see on Neh. 3:3).

Second. Heb. mishneh, the second district, or quarter. See on 2 Kings 22:14.
