The article seeks to highlight the problem of the theological complexityof the Book of Zephaniah, that would be intriguing to the general reader,and in which the categorical divine oracle of judgment collides with a stronginvitation to the messianic joy (Ze. 3:14-17). By starting from the border verse(Ze. 3:9), where the oracle of judgment rapidly turns into an oracle of salvation,the author tries to examine the internal dynamics of this theologicalturning point. The main purpose of this analysis is to attempt to understandthe nature of the day of the Lord which, in the book of Zephaniah, turns outto be at the same time the day of judgment and the day of salvation. Basedon the classic Aristotelian doctrine of the four causes, the author puts inorder disparate material on the day of the Lord in the book of Zephaniah andsees in it a number of references to the Jahwistic version of the account ofthe sin concerning the sons of God (Gn. 6:1-4) and the flood (Gn. 6:5-8,22;9.1-17). The article may become a contribution to the understanding of theimpact of the Pentateuchal sources on the prophetic tradition.
