Like other prophetic texts, the Book of Zephaniah enjoyed popularity andrecognition by the members of the Qumran community. This is testified toby five biblical manuscripts of that book, four in Hebrew (4Q77-78, 4Q82,Mur 88) and one in Greek (8Hev 1), quotations in the Rule of the Community(1QS 5:11 = Zeph 1:6) and in the Exposition on the Patriarchs (4Q464 frg. 4,col. 3, line 9 = Zeph 3:9), direct allusions in the Rule of the Community(1QS 10:22; par. 4Q260 frg. 1, col. 3, line 3 = Zeph 3:13), allusions in theThanksgiving Scroll (1QH 13:32 and 17:6 = Zeph 1:15), in the Paraphraseof the Books of the Kings (4Q382 frg. 9, line 4 = Zeph 1:5), in the Wordsof the Lights (4Q504 frg. 1-2, col. 5, lines 5-6 = Zeph 1:18; 3:6.8), as well asby its existence in the form of two scrolls as the Pesher Zephaniah (1Q15;4Q170). Even though the extant texts of the Pesher Zephaniah are highlyfragmentary and do not have much content, the very fact of their existenceproves that the biblical Book of Zephaniah was the subject of intense studiescarried out by the members of the community, and that its text served asa source of commentary.
