In the south, the 55 evil years under wicked kings Manasseh, and Amon had a profound effect upon Judah, from which it never fully recovered. Zephaniah’s prophecies helped bring about a temporary revival in 621 BC under King Josiah, but it was far too little and far too late. After Josiah’s death the people quickly turned back to their sin.
